On telling descendents of abandoned time capsule homes

ker0senedream  •  2 months ago

Do you guys think its okay to tell family members of the last owners of abandoned homes that their family member left things behind there? if so how do you go about it? I'm asking because i found out about 6 months ago that one of my partners childhood friends is the grandchild of the man who lived in a location on here. Ive been there many times and seen all the stuff left behind by this man and I'm unsure if it would be overstepping to tell him. The house was abandoned over a decade before he was born, and I dont think he knows anything about it/that it ever belonged to his family. Should I tell him? he lives with his parents just down the road from the house. I just don't want to overstep or upset him or his parents as I don't know the storytelling. All I know is that it was owned by his grandfather and now its owned by the next door neighbours who are family friends of ours (and theirs?) I hope this makes sense, its just been weighing on me a lot since I found out.

Yet another thread looking for people with similar interests

**Hello**, I'm quite fresh to the fourm. I have been exploring for quite some time, and I figured I'd look around for people with common interests. I'm not great with being very social, or really posting anything online so please forgive me. All I have is a camera and a flashligh and I'm trying to learn photography as I go. Hopefully good enough to contrubute some pictures here. I'm located in the lower new york area, if you are interested let me know. I am active on signal. Thanks :D

Hello OAP, its been awhile since I applied for level 2 (almost a year i believe!), so lets try this again! if you are active in the GTA and simcoe area youve likely seen one of my albums or locations as nightmapzz (i have since changed my username). Ive been exploring for a few years now and made my account when i first started, but only really became active on here last year, but ive finally added 20 level 2+ locations. thought it would be sooner but man you guys really seem to get around and find spots i thought nobody knew of haha Im awful at writing these things but thank you for your consideration!

Hey everyone in the OAP community, I felt like it's time for me to put in an election for level 3 as I have been a level 2 for over 7 months now and I have been on the platform for over 10 but started posting around 8. I looked at my stats and feel like I have met the minimum requirements for level 3. I'm not really sure on what I should add or talk about in this post as I talked on a lot of stuff in my election for level 2 such as why I wanted to explore and what got me into it, when I started taking pictures, etc. During my time as a level 2 it has helped me find a couple of locations to explore, take better photos and videos, write better write-ups and I even came back to many of the locations I posted without interiors and posted them. I have also did the same to a few other locations uploaded by other users from years ago. I also like to update everyone on the status of locations which haven't been posted in a while just in case they have been demolished or if they became active again so people know. Thank you for taking the time to read this and deciding whether or not I become level 3 but if anyone has any feedback please comment it down below as I would love to hear it as it helps me improve and grow! Best regards, Urbex Niagara

After exploring for a couple years, I've more recently started to post my explorations on OAP, and now feel ready to apply for level 2 as I feel that I meet the requirements. If you look at my uploads, you can see that I have 16 albums and 8 locations, which meets the level 2 criteria. Even though some of my older albums were exteriors, I still meet the interior quantites needed for level 2, and have beeen uploading more higher quality content as of late. In addition, I've also explored some high-tier locations that I believe to be meaningful contributions for the site. I also have many albums that I have not uploaded yet, and would like to use the opportunity of being granted level 2 to continue to post and contribute to this community. I appreciate the consideration!

Hi! I've been an active user on OAP for about a year now, after finding this website I was hooked, I couldn't stop. Before OAP I would spend hours searching on google maps streetview to see if there was any hint at an abandoned location, this site has made it so much easier for me, and it's so fun to log and document all of my photography! I've yet to upload all of my findings and photography, but I believe I should be promoted to level 2 with a lot of my location contributions and findings being level 3 locations, and my active usage on this site! I have a big passion for urban exploring and now that it's summer again I cant wait to start back up and explore even more this year! Urban exploring has given me access to so many beautiful sights and memories with my friends :) I love this hobby!

Why Should I Be Elected to Level Four: I should be elected to level four because, I love this hobby, hobby doesn't sound like the right word, something more than a hobby but less than all absorbing crippling obsession. Not really sure where it would fit. Over the next four short paragraphs I believe I have outlined the why. These sections are all parts of why I should be elected to level four, combined they make up an Urbex Explorer standing outside an abandoned farmhouse, wondering how bad the mould is and hoping the floors are intact. The Hunt, The Thrill: Finding an abandoned farmhouse on google maps, without streetview or sometimes with streetview from ten years ago, having no information until you arrive at the site and can make some decisions. The freedom of asking yourself do I go or do I bail. Oh I almost left out the pile of books used for research, so many books, about failed lumber mills, mineral mines, towns abandoned, and military bases left to decay. So much of my pretrip prep time is spent in books before I even get on the road The Photography: I started with a Nikon D3300 then a Nikon D7200 which I still use if I am not sure of a place, its condition, or if it is watched, dual SD cards have come in handy. From the digital I started expenting with a Pentax K1000, a manual film camera, then a Pentax SFxN, a more automatic film camera but from 1984. And now a Pentax 645 medium format camera which I’am super excited to use in the field. The Personal Ethos: I always strive to follow the rules, but really how can there be any rules when what you're doing is at its very core an activity founded on breaking the rules or moving around the rules. I guess I strive to follow my own set of rules, lines in the sand that I will not cross, can't even think about crossing them because once you start, once I start, I have no idea where it would end, but what it leads to could be terrifying the risks outway the gains, also whenever I am in an abandoned house I will never touch anything other than a door, or obstacle, I can't seem to bring myself to move personal items, there not mine, were never mine and will never be mine. Take only pictures and leave only foot steps, I really enjoy the picture taking part of urbex. Oh and my own personal set of rules, take absolutely nothing even it you know that house is going to be demolished next week or probably torched in the near future, I won't force or make an access point if I can't get in easily, I'll check back in a few months, things sometimes get opened own their own. If the property looks maintained, grass is mowed, no trespassing sign looks newish, if it looks like someone is trying to care for the building, I'll skip it, take it off my map and move on to the next pin. What brought me here: One of the reasons I am here doing this is because urbex brings me to a place that has stopped, the only movement, is the slow inevitable march of decay and water damage. I work in the public school sector and it is so loud and never stops. The work day is a constituent bombardment of the senses, that does not stop, even when I think I am safe, they can still find me. But in an abandoned building with nothing but my cameras and mould, I can be just a bit free and just a bit out of touch with the outside world.
