Tuesday, June 26, 2018

"The series focuses on sites that are obvious examples of urban decay - once bustling locations and social centers now slowly being reclaimed by nature. It's nostalgic, eerie, and sometimes unsettling."
"I decided to visit the Belton Court Estate after seeing a photo of the empty fountain in the main courtyard. There's always that one spot at every location that just sums up its history and potential. I couldn't find much footage, so I set out with my drone to see what I could capture," added Allard. "The perspective we're able to get from above is amazing, especially at Belton Court. The scope of its abandonment is something I wanted to show, and the aerial footage really allows for that."
