Welcome!

Thanks..
Started splorin when they closed down my elementary school back in the 80's called Hayti Elementary in Romulus, MI.
That place is long gone with no trace of it to be found (I checked the field)..
I can be found on facebook @ http://www.facebook.com/ExploreDetroit
Youtube @ http://www.youtube.com/stonedplanet & http://www.youtube.com/exploredetroit
Photobucket @ http://s1216.photobu.../ExploreDetroit
I used to run a site called edited but let it expire with no desire to re-do it..

I've got a nice list of places that I've been in, and try to make it a rule to hit the roof first (at least then if you get caught you got to roof it!)

The Whittier
David Stott
David Broderick (formerly Eaton Tower)
The Lafayette (got in there during active demo)
The CPA building (Union for the train workers across from Michigan Central Station)
MCS (Michigan Central Station)
Wright Kay Building
Random Slaughterhouse
NRPH
Packard Factory
Fisher Body 21
Holiday Inn Southfield
The Metropolitan Building
The Wurlitzer Building (was just there tonite, the top 2 floors are really starting to lean much worse)
Continental Aluminum Factory
Candy Factory (cant remember the name)
Arnold House
Free Press Building
DHTB (Detroit Harbors Terminal Building a.k.a. The Boblo Building)
Mark Twain Library
Brewster Projects
Belle Isle Zoo
Lee Plaza
Temple Apartments
Riverside Hospital
Cass Tech High School & various other schools around Detroit
Kelsey Hayes
Bedford Villa


That's all the big names I remember off the top of my head, the list goes on and I forgot to mention many apartment buildings..
I'm a whore - what can I say? LOL

Edit: Plus lots of various locations scattered around the NY area (Brooklyn, Bronx, Queens), 1 or 2 buildings in Philly & 1 or 2 in Delaware as well.. Oh, and New Jersey..
I have floor signs from the World Trade Center (before it went down obviously).. I used to be in there everyday right around the time that went down but I got fired 2 months before - talk about luck! LOL

I guess I could add that I needed to replace my camera since it fell over and broke on the Columbia boblo boat..
I picked up a Fuji FinePix Real3D W3

So now, photography and video for me is going to the next level..
The camera records in full HD 1080p 3D video using stereo lenses & sensors, and also has stereo microphones..
I need a good program that will do Digital 3D editing.. The stock software converts it to a wmv and when you add "yt3d:enable=true" to the tags section of your uploaded video on youtube, it gives the users different choices of 3D, or you can also just view the left side 2D..
Don't have glasses for the 3D videos? Just turn the 3D off!

I ordered 50 pairs of the red/cyan old school paper glasses, which I will gladly give out 1 pair to each person who asks.. Shipping is NOT a problem, only costs a stamp! LOL
Each pair costed about $0.20 or so, add the price of a stamp and you could paypal me a dollar if you really want to LMFAO..
I plan to GIVE them away though, but only 1 pair, so if you lose them you are shit outta luck!

You can also pick them up at places such as Party City from what I hear if you want to just go buy a pair.. Different party stores may also carry them (not the liquor store)!
