http://invisiblethreads.com/potd/ Daily photos of abandoned places, industrial decay and urban exploration. This daily photoblog by Kendall Anderson is based in and around Toronto, Canada. en-us Kendall Anderson Copyright (C) 2003-2006 Kendall Anderson 120 Kendall Anderson http://invisiblethreads.com/potd/collections/2007_dv/ Here's another small update with some photos taken recently in Death Valley, California. For those of you looking for more abandoned industrial stuff, this isn't it. (sorry!) But if you're interested in landscapes of the American Southwest (everything from mountains to deserts), you might enjoy these. You can access the gallery directly from this link: http://invisiblethreads.com/potd/collections/2007_dv/ ]]> 20070215-san-13@http://www.invisiblethreads.com/potd/ 2007-04-08T07:00:00-05:00 Kendall Anderson Digital CCD http://invisiblethreads.com/potd_i/gal_2007-dv/20070215-san-13.jpg http://invisiblethreads.com/potd_i/gal_2007-dv/t/20070215-san-13.jpg New Gallery: Death Valley, California http://invisiblethreads.com/potd/collections/2006_ge/ It's been a long time since there's been an update! While I was out in Death Valley recently, I scraped some time together after the sun went down to compile a gallery of photos taken last year in Buffalo -- specifically of the grain elevators. You can access the gallery directly from this link: http://invisiblethreads.com/potd/collections/2006_ge/ For the near future, scheduled galleries include: the Valley of Fire (near Las Vegas, Nevada), the ghost town of Rhyolite, and shots from Death Valley. ]]> 20060423-ael-03@http://www.invisiblethreads.com/potd/ 2007-02-24T07:00:00-05:00 Kendall Anderson Digital CCD http://invisiblethreads.com/potd_i/gal_2006-ge/20060723-ael-15.jpg http://invisiblethreads.com/potd_i/gal_2006-ge/t/20060723-ael-15.jpg New Gallery: Buffalo Grain Elevators http://fb.invisiblethreads.com The Forgettable Buildings project has started and is now online at http://fb.invisiblethreads.com. Since I stopped updating the photoblog I've been looking at starting up another project and I'm ready to get this one going. Note that there is a new URL for the RSS feed for the project and it's located at this address: http://fb.invisiblethreads.com/rss.xml Do feel free to stop by and have a read/look. The format is a cross between a blog and forum and I encourage anyone with opinions to participate.

Lakeview GS is the first coal-fired generating station shut down in Ontario, Canada as a result of an environmental mandate. Just over a month ago the four 150-meter tall exhaust stacks were imploded signalling the beginning of significant site demolition. I had a chance to photograph this location almost 6 months ago and more recently before the stacks demolition. It's a huge place filled with very large scale industrial equipment. Additionally I able to make it to captured video of the stacks demolition. As always, I hope you enjoy the photos and look forward to any feedback! ]]> 2006-lv-20060115-ext-03@http://www.invisiblethreads.com/potd/ 2006-07-30T07:00:00-05:00 Kendall Anderson Digital CCD http://invisiblethreads.com/potd_i/gal_2006-lv/2006-lv-20060115-ext-03.jpg http://invisiblethreads.com/potd_i/gal_2006-lv/t/2006-lv-20060115-ext-03.jpg New Gallery: Lakeview Generating Station http://invisiblethreads.com/potd/index.php?id=20060121 This would be one of those overall wide-angle boring shots that show the place in its entirety, with nothing left to the imagination. Andrew's got the reverse angle here.

Update July 30 2006: I've added a gallery of photos from this location. The gallery is available here: Lakeview Generating Station gallery. ]]> 20060121@http://www.invisiblethreads.com/potd/ 2006-01-21T07:00:00-05:00 Kendall Anderson Digital CCD http://invisiblethreads.com/potd_i/2006_01/20060121.jpg http://invisiblethreads.com/potd_i/2006_01/20060121t.jpg Laid Bare http://invisiblethreads.com/potd/index.php?id=20060104 Nope - I didn't position it this way. But it was one of the first things I noticed from 4 or 5 storeys up and I knew I had to photograph it.

This gallery offers a look at the landscapes affected by the mining industry in Sudbury, Ontario, Canada. Primarily we looked at the tailing ponds near the town of Lively with a small visit to the headframe of the Totten mine in Worthington. Much like last year, we encountered some very odd landscapes which you'll just never see in an urban environment. Hope you enjoy it! ]]> @http://www.invisiblethreads.com/potd/ 2006-06-14T07:00:00-05:00 Kendall Anderson Digital CCD http://invisiblethreads.com/potd/collections/2006_ilan/i/menu_main.jpg http://invisiblethreads.com/potd/collections/2006_ilan/i/menu_main.jpg New Gallery: Industrial Landscapes Revisited
