>New York: The capital city of decay. The ancient cities of Europe are beloved and treasured, but in the New World, things that were once beautiful are left to rot.

>And the people! My, the people. Like eight million lone wolves penned in the same cage. They gnaw at each other and themselves. They’re skittish yet vicious. Angry but afraid. Helpless because they’re all fighting for the same scraps from too small a table. This was my kind of place.

Maybe people wouldn't act so "lone-wolfish" towards you if you weren't an arrogant sod who moved to their city and country to document Rot and Decay. In general, people are usually a bit uncomfortable around entropy fetishists.


Great photos. The description next each photos is intriguing too, although I wish they had closure. In Bloodlust, the child dies. How? Due to a shark attack? What happened.


Bloodlust is related to Dunes. The child saw a dead body:
