As a photographer and history buff, I never miss the chance to photograph abandoned cars, buildings, and even whole towns. Cast off of human inhabitation no longer wanted or needed. A glimpse into the past and perhaps a look into the future.
Vintage cars left to slowly decay under the desert sun, saved from the scrap yard only because of their remote location.
Entire towns left to rot when the gold ran out. Coastal fishing cottages sinking in the sand due to bankruptcy.
Derlic junker cars that dared to breakdown on the only road leading to a prime surfing location in Hawaii.
From tropical jungles to deserts to forests and beaches, I’ve photographed abandon human creations around the world.
Fine art photographs of abandoned houses, towns, cars, ships, boats, and more by fine art photographer Edward M. Fielding are available for purchase as museum-quality framed artworks as well as canvas, metal, wood and acrylic prints.
