The Architecture of Abandoned American Asylums by Jeremy Harris via Designboom
‘american asylums’ by photographer jeremy harris takes a look at the derelict architecture of abandoned mental hospitals, a project that commenced in 2005. the series highlights the magnificent structures that were built as a form of therapy - serving as a reminder of the thousands of individuals who lived in these places, some for the majority of their lives. scattered around the east coast and new england, the therapy sites have often been ignored, forgotten, or destroyed - lost as an important part of american history. many of the hospitals captured in photographs over the years are now gone.

New York + London: A Collection Of Double Exposures By Daniella Zalcman via Yatzer
London and New York City; two cities so fundamentally different and yet so amazingly similar. So what happens when two of the most photographed cities in the world come together as one? Daniella Zalcman’s new photographic project New York + London shows us the exact result.
Daniella Zalcman is an award-winning photojournalist with a background in architecture. After establishing a name for herself in New York City, where her work appeared in The Wall Street Journal, The New York Times, the New York Daily News, Sports Illustrated and Vanity Fair, she felt that it was time for her to relocate to London. And her desire to bring a piece of her beloved New York into her new London life, was the driving force that sparked the idea for her next project.

Rubjerg Knude Lighthouse looks unreal. It is located on the coast of the North Sea in Rubjerg, Hjørring Municipality, Denmark. Construction began in 1899 and it was first lit on December 27, 1900.
In August of 1968 the lighthouse ceased operating but remained open as a coffee shop and museum. In 2002 it was all abandoned because of the intensely shifting sands. By 2009 the buildings were removed because of the damage caused by the pressure of the sand. It is believed that the tower will fall into the sea by 2023.
Check it out on Google Maps or Earth with these coordinates 57°26’56.02”N 9°46’27.66”E. I couldn’t see it well with Google Maps, but I know it’s there because you can plainly see it’s shadow across the sand!
