“Deserted buildings are so full of contradictions, I am fascinated by the way nature reclaims spaces that were, essentially, only ever on loan to humans.”  -Kai Fagerström

Today’s beautiful thing combines two of my favorites – abandoned buildings and animals.  Located in the woods in Finland near the photographer’s house, these buildings were abandoned after their owner died. Photographer Kai Fagerström must have colossal amounts of patience to capture the animals who’ve taken over the house so perfectly. I especially love the fairy tale nature of the photos.
