This is a really unique place... An old gasometer meant to store gas for a nearby coal power station. Both are unused since a couple of years... I went there two times. Not sure that it's still possible to get there these days...

As we were in the area, we decided to quickly swing by here again to take some shots with a decent camera.
Urbexers were queuing around in the area luckily we were alone in there, don't know if they didn't know or care... Spent 20 mins in there setting up my tripod and taking some pics. A very good long exposure location.

This is a very cool place. You will naturally stumble in here when visiting the Powerplant / cool tower IM. The entry of the terrain is easy and you shouldn't get spooked by all the warning signs. Once on the terrain it is very easy, the side of the cilinder is peeled open like a sardine box. You can enter here of take the stairs surrounding the building and have a peek from there.
It is pitch black in there, so bring a decent camera and a tripod, something i didn't do at the time.
The pictures aren't this good, but we will definitely go back here and take some decent long exposure pics.
A cool location but you won't spend an hour here.
