Especially if you're interested in majestic environments and locals.
If you want to watch something with a plot that also has a lot of the more epic places in Baraka, then watch "The Fall"
I regularly look at the photos in this bushwalkers gallery. Its mostly Australian locations and vistas but I'm a big nature buff and love looking at crazy terrain and flora.

I can't link to the photos directly for some reason, so links will have to do, atm.
Yes Nightwalker, but splitting hairs is stupid, and awesome stuff from olden times is awesome

Jeebus Detroit is bloody WRECKED!

A bit too much talky-talky, but plenty of looky-looky too.
The reds always have the most awesome monuments, whether they be Russians or N.Koreans.
just saw documentary about those, awesome grown bridges made from roots beeing formed over 500 years by generations

Some of the nicer reference I've come across on stumbleupon.
For sure dude. I've got tons of photos on my phone of abandoned buildings and nasty looking blocks from when I went to school in Detroit. Great apocalypse ref.

Another urban explorer site. Doesn't seem to have updated in awhile but they've got some great photos.
I've actually been thinking of starting another thread where people could upload pictures of natural decay etc. from their areas. :thumbup: Not sure if another thread is needed or if this thread would suffice though.
