It is tough to beat back a feeling of loneliness when looking at Maciej Leszczynski's 'Nowhere.' These photos are taken in mostly urban and industrial areas and feature an eerie calm and stillness.

Nothing seems to be moving or living in these photos. Obviously the machines get used and people walk through the streets, but Maciej Leszczynski has managed to capture each area at the right time. No one is out and about, and each area looks completely abandoned. Check out Maciej Leszczynski's 'Nowhere' in the gallery today.
