It's hard to capture what it's like to explore a modern ruin - it's a 360° sensory experience. The sounds of dripping water or creeking hinges, the smell of fallen plaster, the feel of climbing through thick brush or thee sense you might fall through the floor at any moment. But someone who had a hand in developing Quick Time software suggested I try it, and now I'm hooked, shooting them whenever I got on a ruins expedition.

This photo I shot while photographing the airplane graveyard in Tucson. I was standing in the middle of a field of B-52's, and if you download the Quick Time file by clicking on the image you can pan around and perhaps be as amazed as I was about how much technology, as well as destructive power, now sits in the desert.

I've composed each from a dozen separate photographs taken with a 20mm lens and stitched together with Apple's Quick Time Authoring studio.

I'm particularly happy with "Across Time," a composite photo of my grandmother and me taken on the deck of the S.S. United States but 50 years apart...

I'll be adding more over the next few months...the New York State pavilion from the World's Fair, the Thunderbolt roller coaster in Coney Island, Ellis Island, and the Major Zipper factory that was just imploded in Newark.
