📖 Bts: Hello, i'm an urban explorer & photographer based in Paris. 🏭 In the moonlight we approach this building, we are listening, no noise except an owl in the distance, without too much difficulty we find an access and discreetly we enter the kingdom of silence and abandonment. Many closed doors, the slightest sound resounds here, it's incredible, but it puts us on alert on our own steps, we must make no noise. After 20 minutes we find our access to one of the holy grails of electrical control rooms. Kelenföld the magnificent, an art deco room from another time, many films have been shot there since its abandonment, that's why it is protected, guarded. We wait for the day to rise, this incredible glass roof is in fact a skylight which is already beginning to light up. Suddenly we hear a door noise resounding, quickly, we have to go hide!! We had spotted a little corner, we slipped quietly there, hidden in a cupboard, the sound of footsteps arrived, a guard tour... he check our room but didn't see us. I come out 10 minutes later for a check because there was no more noise, the room looks safe, when suddenly footsteps arrive, very fast, there are 2 of them, I don't have time to go back to hide, there is a dark corner, I'm dressed in black, so I stick to the wall in this shadowy area hoping they pass without seeing me. I feel like they're gonna hear my heart beating so loud, I try to breathe as softly as possible, to calm my stress and blend into the shadows. They pass, I see them clearly, a guard in fatigues, stocky, solid, with a scowl and another, who looks more like a visitor, I have the impression that the second sees me.... but he passes without saying anything. A few minutes later I start to hear "clicks" that I recognize, he takes pictures, he had to pay the guard to access them. I take this opportunity to escape on silent foot. I join Chimère to tell her, then we waited 45min in our corner, I come out to check discreetly, no more sound, they are gone! Now it's our turn to immortalize this beauty. Sadly the light is strong now and not as beautiful as the sunrise time, but when we explore it's never perfect, that's part of the adventure. 📷 Nikon Z6 - 1,3" - f/8 - iso400 - 14mm ©️ instagram @ freed_o_gram

So much waste. Humanity is a Sisyphean loop.
