🎙️Testing, testing! 1, 2! Is this thing on? I think the mic might be broken...

Old operating theatre lights. I found these inside an old 1950s surgical pavilion of the old abandoned North Staffordshire Hospital, Stoke-On-Trent. Sadly, these are probably in the skip now; these buildings have been demolished.

I explored this place many times over the years, as it was close to my home.

New York 2007 - From the Urban B'Sides series. - image: Christian Reister

For more than twenty years, Christian Reister has been capturing in his photographs the colourful and not always easy to follow, but therefore very human behaviour of people in their leisure time.

People can’t live without other people. We are with each other, we observe each other, we love each other and we hate each other. That’s why ohoh.store is paying homage to people by offering twelve postcards featuring images of people at the very affordable price of €0.60.

Christian Reister (1972) lives and works in Berlin. He began taking photographs in 2001 and mainly captures people and life in urban areas. After ten years of shooting in colour, Christian Reister now photographs exclusively in black and white. His main focus is currently Berlin’s nightlife, on which he has already published several books.

Welcome to Gas City

What is Gas City, you ask? It is Gas Town, but torn apart and rewritten from the ground up as an SDK for building your own dark factories…

Blue Power Plant, located within a derelict industrial steelworks site in Belgium. The plant used gas produced during the creation of coke at an adjacent factory to generate power. Natural gas was also used to fuel a large boiler house on the site.

No. 40 in my photo collection of signs of unique Spanish-language business names ending in 𝗲𝗿í𝗮: MILANESERÍA

Preparing food in a Milanese style (from Milan, Italy) involves pan-frying thin slices of meat that have been dipped in a light batter and breadcrumbs. In Spanish, "milanesa" refers to this style and also means "cutlet", so a "milanesería" is a restaurant specializing in serving cutlets and Milanese style food.

In this restaurant in the Roma Norte colonia of Mexico City, their "mascots" were Mila the chicken, and Nesa, the cow. Quite clever! The food was delish.

Villa dell'allenatore, the abandoned villa of an Italian football coach. It is said he trained a local team, excelling in passing on his enthusiasm for the beautiful game to generations of the town's children.
