Owls are nocturnal creatures. They’re wide awake at night and they sleep during the day. If this sounds like bliss to you, then, like about 20 percent of the population who find themselves most active at around 9 pm, you may fall into the same category as our feathered friend. Night owls often have difficulty waking up in the morning, and like to be up late at night. Studies of animal behaviour indicate that being a night owl may actually be built into some people’s genes. This would explain why those late-to-bed, late-to-rise people find it so difficult to change their behaviour. The trouble for night owls is that they just have to be at places such as work and school far too early. This is when the alarm clock becomes the night owl’s most important survival tool. Experts say that one way for a night owl to beat their dependence on their alarm clocks is to sleep with the curtains open. The Theory is that if they do so, the morning sunlight will awaken them gently and natura...

If someone is entering to other house without permission it is a crime. If you posses such building would you like to someone go there? I don't think so, but from the other side if such person only takes pictures and don't violate that place it would be unfair to put him/her in the jail.
I haven't had a chance to enter an abandoned building, but once I enter to the building which were under constuction when I was 10 and little to curious. It was church so views from unsecured place where the organ stands were unforgettable :)
It can be a bit controversial at times, since these places are usually private property, but then again if you don't mean any harm, than I can't see any reason why not visit an old, ruined building. I mean, It is already in bad conditions and is not used anymore, so not much harm a photographer or "visitor" can do. Especially when I don't see any fence and/or sign explicitly saying that entrance isn't allowed I don't feel any guilt in doing so.
As a side note, under this link we can find many interesting places to see: http://www.opuszczone.com/index_2.php?s=galerie
I’m a really big fan of World War II history and I like to visit some bunkers hidden in the woods or some others hardly accessible places. Sometimes I just an astonished of how vast these structures ma by, especially when you look at these things that are above the ground. I think that there is a great touristic potential in these places and I just feel sad when I watch those places go to ruins because there is nobody to take care of them.
The idea of going to Chernobyl crossed my mind a couple of times and I’m peaty confident that I will eventually go there. I would really to see the entire city slowly consumed by nature. That will be a sight to remember for lifetime and will give me a good image how the world will look like when we will be long gone. I’ve heard that nowadays its peaty hard to go there, but I’m sure that all of this will change in time. And in 10-20 years from now the sight will be even more breathtaking.
If I had an opportunity, I'd like to explore Seattle underground city, where you can find the old Seattle, before the Great Seattle Fire in 1889.
P.S. I'm Armand S. ;)
