St Athan Boys Village, May 2011

This was my tentative first step into the world of urban exploration. I'm sure most of you must be getting sick of numerous reports about this place, but as an amateur explorer, I found this was a perfect way to start.

I visited here with my girlfriend late in the afternoon, incredibly easy to find and a there's a handy passing place where I left the car. About 5 minutes into our explorations, three lads turned up and took a quick look around. We were nervous at first, as we weren't sure if they were going to cause trouble, but they took a quick look around and left soon afterwards.

As I said above, I'm sure most of you must be sick of the same old pictures, so these following snaps will hopefully be a little bit different from the usual ones.

Nice pics, what filter did you use on them?

Thank you! I took the photos with my iPhone, and put a Cross Process filter on them. Hopefully they look ok!
