Since I have done some model shootings on typical urban exploration locations lately, I have decided to open a new gallery for model photography. For now this gallery does not have any submenus because I am not sure about the quantity of pictures I will add in this gallery in the future. May be I'll subdivide the page for every model because I want to mention the names (or nicknames) of the models in the next days. But I think it is a good idea to separate those pictures a little bit because it is a subject at its own. You may have a look at those pictures in the new Models gallery. I herewith would also like to thank the models that have contributed to the pictures. Studio shootings will not be published on Luxurbex because they have no relation with urbex photography. |

I didn't do a lot of Urbex over the last two weeks but I was still active in photography. Between some model shoots I also took a night shot from the nuclear power station in Cattenom. These are shots I wouldn't like to publish here on LuxUrbex because they are not really Urbex shots. LuxUrbex should stay a place dedicated to Urbex.
But here is a preview of the shot I took in Cattenom, I like it a lot and I will show it along my industry shots at the next exhibition in September:

Yesterday, I had a short but very interesting visit to a power plant in Luxembourg. It is not the first time I visited this plant and I went there because Bob, a user from the luxembourgish photo community Photogen.lu, asked me to show him the place. So, together with John, Misch and Bob I spent a couple of hours at this beautiful yet difficult place and I took a new fisheye shot that can be found in the ARBED (others) gallery (the very last one on the page). |

Yesterday, a friend of mine showed me an abandoned castle in Luxembourg. We went in the building very late in the evening and I had only very short time to take some pictures. So, I returned there today together with Philippe, to take another set of pictures. The castle is not very large but we spent a couple of hours inside to take some very nice pictures. There is an amazing spiral staircase and both of us have spent a long time to get some amazing pictures of it. I have already created a new menu and uploaded 3 pictures so far, but I still have 8 pictures to process. So don't forget to come back regularly and visit the Chateau de la Source Gallery for updates. |

So, today Philippe and I went back to a crypt in Belgium because we didn't get any shots the last time we were there. This time we found how to access the crypt and we got some nice shots. Unfortunately the place is difficult to shoot because of a lack of colours. Everything is grey. So I have only a couple of shots left. It is the first time I have to saturate my shots. Usually I lower the saturation but this time there was not enough saturation. You may find the pictures in the Crypts Gallery under Public Infrastructure. This gallery has been renamed from Crypt (the old pictures) to Crypts because I have not enogh pictures to create a new gallery and I think both crypts are very well together on one page. As always, don't forget to come back because I have still a couple of shots to process. |

I met up with some friends from Luxembourg for a short urbex trip. I had planned to go to an abandoned farming house in Luxembourg but during the week I got some news that this location is not interesting for urbexing. So I decided to take my guests to the prison I recently visited in Germany. This location is interesting because of what it is but you have visited it in about two hours. But it is not too far away and so I had the opportunity to meet some friends (like Spako and BlackPanther) I haven't met for some time because they cannot join me for my journey trips. So, there was nothing left for me to do and I played around with my gas mask while I was waiting for my guests to take their shots. The one and only (gas mask) shot I kept can be found under "Justizvollzugsanstalt - Abschiebeknast" in the Others Gallery -> Public Infrastructure. I would like to thank Suraki, BlackPanther, Spako and Manon for having joined this exploration. |
