Ghost Town pt. 2

2008.05.02










"Alice nel paese delle meraviglie" is "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland"



Apice is a small ghost town near Benevento. Evacuated after the two earthquakes of 1962 and 1980, today it is possible to walk among the old houses left open and unguarded. The lamp-posts, the windows, the grilles, the alleys and the front doors talk about southern Italy of the after war, crossed by an unreal and suspended silence.

Queen911 I am in awe of your series. I see I can learn a lot from your photos.

photopoet An unsettling look at this town—evocative and filled with stories. I love taking photos of old buildings so I'm drawn to the underlying narrative of these photos. My favorite is the tenth photo. Great series.

curlyq60 ...in a way I see sadness and memories of ones home gone...lovely post...

JuliaGotz *very* strange and intriguing view. makes me think of the future (I hope not) of our planet. #5 and #6 together are a strong combination.
JuliaGotz · 2008-05-04: 20:55
ScubaLiz Wow, great set! How forlorn the town looks!
ScubaLiz · 2008-05-04: 22:34
pixynadzmi all others are okay, very nice... except for #6... a bit too much for me.

sicknessinit bellissimo set, merita qualche commento a parte
il posto che hai scelto e' un ottimo soggetto
la numero 3: semplice ma veramente significativa
la 5 e la 8 sono dei classici
la 9 mi piace un sacco, mi intrigano quelle forme e contrasti, e' assolutamente la mia preferita
e il libro e il fumetto aggiungono un sacco di stile
bravissimo!

camilleauteuil only the artists and the madmen see ghosts ... - I don't know if we are artists or crazy but I see ghosts in each of your photos ...

Fasterbit deve essere stato emozionante, anche io qualche tempo fa sono stato in un borgo abbandonato, una esperienza bellissima
