Beauty in Abandoned Buildings Captured

A London-based photographer Andre Govia captures haunting beauty in abandoned buildings such as hospitals, schools, houses, hotels, asylums etc. Govia has never revealed the specific locations of his bizarre expeditions. He often tries to capture his subjects exactly the way they are, so as to give them as natural a look as possible.
