Thanks for the link to my blog. Urbex is growing beyond belief perhaps beyond control.
I don’t want to sound like I’m up myself but, urbex (or UE) is a semi secretive movement by nature of what we do. Most explores could be classed as tress pass and there is an urbex code: take nothing but pictures, leave nothing but footsteps. Add to this the unwritten rule of do not break and enter, this is classed as criminal damage also many of the buildings are in varied states of decay and can be dangerous.
You mention the use of HDR this is mainly a result of very dark buildings and extreme lighting contrast found in the buildings, also HDR tends to enhance textures on decayed surfaces.
In my view the best urbex forum is http://www.talkurbex.com
A great welcoming bunch
