I know!!!

It amazes me that someone would walk onto someone elses property, a decaying partly built industrial site no less, and start snapping pictures.

Not very bright in my estimation.

Zilla must be having a bad day. I liked the pictures. Thought they were cool. It's not very often you get to see the "dinosaur bones" of unfinished nuclear sites.

Mike isn't having a bad day.  From what I have seen the principle photographer in this "project" is doing nothing more than trespassing.  His photographs are interesting, but gained illegally.  That makes the rest of us photographers who follow the rules get less and less access to these sites. 

I think he would find that if he followed the rules and asked for permission (most companies have a corporate office), he would find that although he would be turned down more often than not, there would still be those jewels that would flesh out his portfolio. 

I know....I got into Big Rock and Parr to photograph them before they were demolished, but I have been turned down a whole lot more than I have been let in.  I once had a Security Truck full of officers come out of the Owner Controlled Area, down the road, and into a field where I was shooting a Cooling Tower at night. They weren't happy about me being there, but I had called ahead and gotten PERMISSION. Try a little harder, you might be surprised.
Is it time for coffee yet?

That's SOME reason,...I could look at these photos for a month of Sundays and never be reminded of D1G,....

Perhaps I've seen too much,.... [coffee]

The inside of it.... A giant ball sitting in the middle of a fenced off area is hardly reminiscent of these... Just the broken down nature of it all.

Man these pictures just make me want to cry!! I inspected a lot of those concrete placements. After working in QC on the A plant powerblock I was transfered out to the A plant cooling towers where I was the lead inspector on the A-1 tower. I went all the way from the bottom of the deepest drilled pier (106' deep) to the topping out at 540.39'. My name is scrawled in the concrete at the top of the ladder. Damn TVA for being stupid enough to try and have 14 units under construction at one time. That's what killed their program!

Not many consider the government "smart" enough to operate construction with little float in a deliverable.
