Krakow Train Graveyard [Part III - Drone Photos]

December 2018 · 2 min read · Krakow

Welcome to Part III of my Krakow Train Graveyard series. Here, I present photos taken on the day with my drone, a DJI Spark.

In case you've missed them, you can read on the previous posts in this series here:

The drone offers a perspective never usually seen by a naked eye at ground level, and that's what I love about it most; it helps turn an already interesting experience into an altogether new and fascinating one.

This site in particular, had an almost Chernobyl-like abandoned look to it, minus the #SteemitBlogger @goodwithtravels you see in the middle:

With aerial shots, you start to understand the complexity of the rail network and the sense that it runs endlessly into the distance.

Have you ever seen a train that has a tree growing right the way through it?

You have now!

You can see it again on the right-hand side of the shot here:

I was fortunate in that the day of the visit, the sunlight was perfect and the sky beautifully clear.

What better conditions to take a self-portrait... or even a drone-portrait?

The great thing about this site was the fact that it was secluded enough to do what we wanted.

Here, you can see @guchtere and I climbing one of the abandoned locomotives, exploring the insides of the trains too.

It's worth saying that safety is paramount, and rusted metal like this can have dangerously sharp edges. Please always use caution.

And finally, my favourite photo of all from the day...

I love the fact it captures so much going on:
