Tom Bejgrowicz and photographs of Lancaster Stockyards
18 Aug
Today we take a look at Tom Bejgrowicz interesting style of photography. I’ve always been a fan of those who partake in urban exploration and Tom has explored many locales. His work in the Lancaster Stockyards is phenomenal. He states “Lancaster Stockyards, located on the edge of the city in Lancaster, PA, was incorporated in 1895 and quickly became the largest stockyards east of Chicago. What remains is a maze of buildings, animal pens and rotting ruins awaiting razing.”
I enjoy this image the most out of his series due to the viewpoint he is allowing us to see in the photograph. I imagine that he had to lay down or crouch practically on the trash-ridden floor in order to take this shot. The focus is interesting and helps to tell a story. Perhaps overconsumption and consumerism?
The processing of the film is excellent and the gritty colors blend well with Tom Bejgrowicz’s subject matter.
