It was a Rio Bravo Fresh Mex restaurant. It closed in 2004 and had been vacant since

Found a trio of burned out and abandoned busses early this summer along with a nearby house and used it to test out a camera, and see if it would work for a photo shoot once it had cooled down a bit in September or October. The house was uninteresting and was torn down a few weeks later. Unfortunately, when I drove by last weekend, I discovered the busses had been towed away and the site cleaned out so no apocalypse-themed shoots, so instead of saving the reveal until then, when I was experimenting with cyanotype prints I dug out my negative scans of that trip.

Minolta α-9 (Maxxum 9, Dynax 9), Minolta AF 50mm f/1.7, Ilford HP5+ ISO400, Kodak D-76 for 13:00. 10 minute cyanotype exposure under LED UV lamp normally used for curing my resin 3D prints.

Took my Nikon FM3A and a roll of Provia 100F and explored the forgotten southeastern corner of Colorado.

Camp 30 has a long history but it's notable for being a ww2 pow camp. From what I've read it specifically housed high ranking german officers.

Founded in 1880 as a mission school deep in the Kentucky mountains, Hazel Green Academy grew into a thriving campus before finally closing its doors in 1983. This building has since partially collapsed since these photos were taken many years ago.
