I only take pics

Tskaltubo As a photographer, I have an urban photography project, I visit abandoned places and shoot with a model. I do it in Budapest , where I live, and if possible, while I am travelling, for example, in Kyrgyzstan, where I lived for two months . I want to say that it's illegal and hazardous to enter abandoned buildings/places, so please don't take this post as an invitation to do the same. During my trip to Georgia, you can read about it here and here , on the last day I visited the city of Tskaltubo. It is close to Kutaisi and reachable in 20 minutes by taxi and marshrutka. Because it was a last-minute decision, I visited the place alone, so no portraits. Tskaltubo is a spa resort in west Georgia, it is known for its radon carbonate mineral springs, whose natural temperature of 33-35 °C (91-95 °F) enables the water to be used without preliminary heating. The first bathhouses were built as early as the 1870s. Tskaltubo was especially popular in the Soviet era, attracting a...

 Istvantelek Between a trip and another, I started an urban photography project in Budapest, where I live, and in Hungary, I am visiting abandoned places and have a shooting with a model. Recently I exported this project also outside Hungary, in the summer of 2021 I lived two months in Kyrgyzstan and had this project also there . I want to say that it's illegal and very dangerous to enter abandoned buildings/places, so please don't take this post as an invitation to do the same. One of the first places I visited with this project is the Istvantelek train yard, which once was one of the most important railway vehicle repair shops in Hungary, the Hungarian railway history park is located near the area. I like to discover and visit abandoned places because they are full of history, they are like an open exhibition of a recent past, when I'm there I'm imagining people that interacted with that place, that worked there, how was their life in that period. If it is possible I...

 Бишкек, Ак-Туз First I want to say that it's illegal and very dangerous to enter abandoned buildings/places, so please don't take this post as an invitation to do the same. Recently I got fascinated by abandoned places, precisely when I started to do portrait photography, I thought: "why don't do portraits in abandoned buildings?". While I was living in Kyrgyzstan I knew about abandoned villages from the soviet period, so I wanted to visit at least one of them. Thanks to some friends I was able to visit Ak-Tuz, a village not far from Bishkek. Part of it is abandoned, with ruins of buildings from the Soviet period and an abandoned factory. I had in my mind an outfit for this shooting and I asked my friend to dress up as close as she could to it, so the shooting was a bit prepared even if it was the first time I visited the place. After the fall of the soviet union factories and mines in all the country closed so the population moved elsewhere leaving the cities ab...
