Considering that much of Detroit looks like Ravenholm, this wouldn’t be very difficult at all. The only real problem is that those parts of town are too dangerous for me to traverse for this book.

I can think of a lot of places like that here…but like hell would I want to go into them. They’re INHABITED.

Condemned buildings are homes!

No destruction, but…

City 17! … Actually, just more Belgium.

This isn’t a competition entry, by the way. Got a copy of Raising the Bar already – have you lot been raiding the Valve swag-cupboard too?

Because John Walker is hiding somewhere in your house right now, watching. Waiting. Knowing.

He does that all the time. Just ignore him, got Rentokil coming round next week.

So, no post-processing editing is permitted in Photoshop either? Many professional digital photographers use histograms for colour correction and apply touch ups and so on to their pictures to enhance the work.

Fair enough if those are your rules, but how will you be able to tell if digital images have been touched up?

Funnily enough, I actually live not far from where they filmed Mad Max. You can still go visit the car (its gone to crap nowadays though), and the Thunderdome from Mad Max 3 (To this day, I still don’t understand why Tina Turner was in it).

On a side note, I think some runners up should receive some Fallout-y type prizes :D

“I know just the spot. Dublin IS an apocalyptic wasteland!”

Hah! Good luck Gulag, I live in Sligo!

They filmed most of mad max here, that australia thing was just a cover story
