I loved these llamas peacefully grazing among the ruins of Pumapungo ("the door of the puma" in Quechua), a city laid by the Incas centuries ago. This place, that was compared to the empire capital, Cusco, was the northern border of the Inca territory. It is in current day Cuenca, Ecuador.

The #Ukrainian city of #Bakhmut was founded in the 16th century, was once a fortress, was active in salt mining, survived the plague in the 18th century, built factories in the 19th century, survived World War I and World War II, and developed in the 21st century.

Today, only #ruins remain of Bakhmut; the city is #dead.
#putin's propagandists describe the interruption of the city's five-hundred-year history and its destruction as "#liberation."

I'd like to title this photo but I'm at a loss for words. This is a cliff ruin in Utah's canyon country. This was photographed from the inside of the ruin looking out. Clearly, the wall is cracked. Most of the sandstone shaped "bricks" are still covered in adobe mud. That's right, all of those marks in the mud are 800 to 1000-year-old finger print smears.

A black and white portrait photo of an ancient adobe mud covered wall. The wall has a large crack in it extending from the top right and narrowing as it goes down to the center-bottom of the photo. Bright light is seen through the crack. A few brick shaped sandstone rocks are seen near the bottom, but the majority of the surface is covered in adobe mud. Finger prints, that appear as grooves as the person smeared the mud onto the wall, are seen covering the majority of the wall.

I first went to this old timber mill ruins in #Merville in the early 90s - years before it was included as part of the present #HeadquartersTownsite Park. It's one of the easiest accessible #AbandonedPlaces you can visit in the #ComoxValley on #VancouverIsland. I've done many past photoshoots with models here & assisted in shooting some music videos & short films here many years ago.
Some folks built skateboard ramps & rail jumps inside the unroofed building ruins in the late 90s.

The mill was built between 1912-1913 for the Canadian Western Logging Company. There was an entire small mill town at this location with post office, schools, medical clinic & more. The Headquarters townsite survived until the late 1950’s when the school & houses were sold for $1 each with the proviso that they be moved off company property. #Ruins of the mill can be seen at Headquarters Townsite Park. The park is stewarded by local community citizens.

The old concrete building at the entrance to Headquarters Townsite Park from Farnham Road was built as a rough timber mill in 1912-1913. Despite being fully equipped, the mill was never used for reasons that remain unclear. Some say the mill was only built so that the company could gain certain concessions from the BC government. The recession of 1913 may have led the company to abandon it. Parts from the mill were later used to build a new mill in Courtenay.

A dilapidated building with stone walls partially obscured by vibrant graffiti artwork. Its flat roof is lined with moss, and multiple empty windows are apparent. Surrounding the structure are bare trees without leaves and scattered underbrush, creating a wild, overgrown environment. The ground is covered in brown leaves, and a dirt path leads towards the building. The overall lighting is dim, suggesting a cloudy atmosphere.
An interior view of a ruined building constructed from dark concrete, with the walls adorned in vibrant graffiti art. Vertical and horizontal lines from the walls create a geometric framework. The floor is muddy and littered with branches, enhancing the abandoned feel. Tall, leafless trees frame the scene, while a gray sky looms overhead, providing soft, diffused lighting that contributes to the melancholic mood. The graffiti varies in color and style, adding splashes of brightness to the otherwise somber environment.
A large, rectangular concrete structure, featuring elaborate graffiti art, including abstract shapes and colorful designs, on its exterior wall. The building is partially shaded by surrounding trees, which have a mix of moss-covered trunks and bare branches. A lone figure in gray clothing stands to the right, with autumn leaves covering the ground, and a sign mounted on the wall reading "No Trespassing." The sky above is overcast, contributing to a moody atmosphere.
A wide-angle view of an abandoned building with walls adorned in diverse graffiti art, including bright colors and intricate designs. The foreground features a hand holding a large, metallic spray paint can, partially in focus, while the background displays the rugged ground made of dark stones, scattered branches, and moss patches. Dim natural light filters through the trees outside, enhancing the somber yet creative atmosphere.
