Japan's Ghost Island

Here lies stuff & things.

I am a graphic designer who works in film advertising in NYC. On the side I like me some photography, typography, music, coffee & ampersands.

Death to comic sans.

Any photo you might find here is one that I have taken unless otherwise noted.

Please, do ask me questions and give me suggestions. I am an amateur & one day hope to be a professional amateur. Fingers & toes crossed.

Please & thank you. Come back often.

Here’s a collection of pretty fantastic photos of Hashima Island, Japan. It used to be a coal mining community until petroleum became the more sought after resource. By 1974 the entire island was completely abandoned. It has a fascinating history which is complimented quite well by this set of haunting photos. Check out the wiki page here if you want to read more.
