On every trip I make to Svalbard, I make a point to visit a place called Pyramiden. It’s an abandoned Russian Coal Mine City. The place is fascinating as it looks like one day they just closed the place and everyone left. I am working on a book and portfolio of this place. This image was one of those compositions that caught my eye. As you may know if you follow my posts I am very big into rust and abandoned things. The Russians are trying to clean up this place and they are tearing out pipes, wires, and such and all of this has just been left to rust in giant piles. Look for more from this place in the future.
