Abandoned Theme Parks

The park I would like to go is Chippewa Lake Park, Medina County, Ohio. I chose that park because I liked how from the images of the entrance with the vines and plants have over taken it provides a interesting background. The image itself with the plants makes it look more dramatic with feeling. Its something different and i like how the roller coaster is not completely destroyed including the Farris wheel.Also i think some of the photos could be really good in black and white.

The places I think photographers might like is 
  • Graffiti downtown in Austin
  • Line of old pick up trucks near Grandfalls Texas 
  • Gum wall in Seattle
  • Bridges in Portland Organ 
  • Coast line of Organ
  • Air plane graveyard outside Tucson,AZ
  • Neon graveyard in las vegas

I think this place would be a great place to take pictures because of the uniqueness of just random things that you wouldn't expect. Also if you wait when night comes they plug some of the signs in and its pretty cool seeing them lit up. Photos I would take is lots of angles and close ups and down the middle like the picture above. Whats interests me is they turned a graveyard for signs to a museum that its not something you would think of in everyday life.

I would need a parent and a plane ticket to get to Las Vegas plus a taxi cab. Then I would need a hotel room since it would take more than a day.  Money for food while traveling.  A backpack to carry my camera and lenses.  a tripod.  Battery and back-up battery and memory card.  Laptop to download the photos and flashdrive for backup.  Check on the hours the Neon Museum is open and maybe permission to shoot before or after their open hours.  Would like to shoot in early morning so have better lighting and no people in the shots.  Or evening/later afternoon/evening for good lighting. Then at night when some of the neon is lit up.
