About

WLoB is a photolog with an emphasis on urban decay, rural decomposition, and industrial relics. The images on this site reflect an interest in urban exploration, infiltration, and an appreciation for the urban landscape in general.

While focused on and based in Birmingham, Alabama, the photolog follows the photographers anywhere they may roam.

It isn't about the photos, it's about the experience. The photography just happens.
