Dear Marshall, this may sound ridiculous, and you may never find the chance to do it (if you tried so hard to have permision even for photographing this building in daylight), but here it is: try your chance to visit this building in night time, with a fried or friends, with torches and camera flashes with you...
...Then, see the adrenalin, the attraction of horror, and the astoundingly mysterious beauty of the treasure you managed to enter..!

Perhaps 80% of my b/w photography belongs to a deserted building in my hometown, an old hotel in the middle of the city. It was to be demolished someday, but that day came after 1.5 years after I first discovered it. I was warmly welcomed by the keeper of the building to photograph it regularly. My first visit there was with a close friend, and in the night...
...I cannot define you the excitement we had during our expedition to the depths of that enermous hotel..!
Flash photography in such an environment (that sometimes gets pitch dark, deep dark, and only dark) is like seeing ghosts here, there, and everywhere..!!

Then, after that first night, me alone and sometimes with my friend visited that hotel for 1.5 years, for several times per week. Thus, I was able to see that building in every season, under every weather condition...
...And photographed, photographed, photographed...

That building was my studio, my home, my 'feeding grounds'...
...And seeing it demolished when the day arrived tortured me, and seriously made me cry.
Still, after approx. 5 years, the memories are fresh, the visions are strong, and my longing for that building is everlasting...
...As there were a lot to be done in that building for my photography.

The works I've posted under the names like "On paint peeled off", "Strong urge to fly", "Blast", "Textures and crops", etc. are all derived from the photography that I was able to do in my "Hotel Boulevard Palace" expeditions...
...So many more are waiting to be dealt with.

So, this took so long, but I'd like to express my excitement and my envy (but peaceful... :)) about seeing your photography here...
With all my heart, I wish that you'd be able to have many, many more visits to that marvelous place... :)
