The beautiful Art Nouveau casino in Constanta, Romania. I visited several years ago when it was abandoned. A decaying shadow of her once-grand self. Now, she is renovated and back in use as an exhibition and events venue.

A colleague pointed out to me that this image released by the US military of its strike on IS in #Syria clearly shows the destruction of part of a 'desert kite' (millennia-old hunting megastructures) and other ancient ruins in the immediate area of the blast.

📷 Photography Portfolio Feature - "Industrial Decay"
The onward march of technology and innovation never halts. These abandoned places were once the pinnacle of technological perfection. As decades pass they are superseded and forced into closure. Once-bustling hives of activity fall silent and cold.

Vous, vous mettriez quoi dans ce type d'archive ?
Ici j'ai mis, sur une base automatiquement et régulièrement sauvegardée :
- les photos et vidéos personnelles.
- un bonne partie de mes échanges écrits (mails et SMS).
- mes agendas, pour savoir ce que je faisais de ma vie et quand.
- des documents administratifs, au cas où ce serait nécessaire/pratique.
- des fichiers musicaux qui m'ont marqué au long de ma vie.
- des petits mots spécialement adressés aux uns et aux autres.

Parce-que bon.
L'époque où on fouillait les vieux cartons au grenier pour y retrouver des vieux trucs oubliés qui font resurgir des émotions, des souvenirs, et des bouts de petites histoires dans l'Histoire et dans nos histoires existera toujours.
Mais il y a quand-même plein de choses ailleurs (et de plus en plus) qui peuvent faire pareil. 😅
Ça doit être ma crise de la quarantaine.
Ça fait bien un an que la question me travaillait.
Je suis en train de rédiger le brouillon d'un #testament mystique, que je vais officiellement déposer auprès d'un notaire, avec tous les identifiants et les mots de passe nécessaires pour déchiffrer les archives de ma vie numérique que je décide de faire passer à mes proches à mon décès.
Et je suis content et rassuré d'anticiper ce genre de chose. Vraiment vraiment.

⚓ This impressive building was the headquarters of a nautical freight transport company, which traded all over the world. Their primary import was coffee; their main export was flour.
After World War One, the company ceased trading. This building has seen many uses since it was partitioned: bank offices, apartments, a cafe, a travel agent, storage, an orthodontist and a paediatric clinic, to name a few.

Town Mansion, Belgium. One of the first grand (semi) abandoned houses I ever visited!
A mysterious man living (or squatting) in the attic gave me permission to enter and photograph. Outside a storm raged, lighting flashed and thunder shook the house. It was a memorable visit!
Built in 1912, neighbouring houses were lost to First World War bombing, leaving this one as a rare survivor.
