I present you with 2010- A Year In Review, as seen through the lens of Ryan Ademan. These photos aren't all awesome, perfectly composed shots, but they all hold memories to me that I wont soon forget.
This was the result of the fall of my old Kodak from the top of a concrete bridge. Damn near broke both my ankles trying to save it, to no avail.

We've had a blast this year exploring with some amazing people. We met dozens of new explorers and hooked up with many old friends. We introduced a few new explorers to the Abandoned Dreams line up this year and had a few sink back into the darkness too. As always, hundreds of group and self portraits were taken this year along our travels. Here's a small portion of them. Some really good memories I'll never forget are attached to these photos.
Turrel, Allsion, Cambria, Mr. Meister, and Ryan Ademan outside of the 716 drain.

I don't remember who is who, but I'm fairly certain the people in the photo are AbandonedNH, ClimbingDoug, Mysterea, Matt Fallout, Keti Fallout, Keith Fallout, Cambria, Ryan Ademan, and Clahhhkie(?). I'm probably wrong about that though.

To all the people we've had the pleasure of exploring with this year:
Some of us have gotten along from the start. Some of us have had problems in the past. Some of us have stopped talking. You've all made an impact in some way or another, and I'm happy to say I've met most of you. Some of you still suck.
To All the fans who've stuck with us this long:
Thanks so much for checking out our page. It really means a lot, since I know I'm a terrible photographer. We've definitely had fun, and can only hope you've enjoyed some of what you've seen here in the past. We hope you'll continue to follow our shenanigans at our new website for 2011. you can find the site at:
