Urban Explorer snaps eerie pics onSamsung Galaxy S7 for O2Urban explorer and photographer, Andrew Marland, has used the advanced low-light capabilities of the Samsung Galaxy S7 to capture images of

buildings long forgotten by their occupants and unseen for decades.

The project was commissioned by O2 to mark the launch of the new Samsung Galaxy S7, available now on O2’s Refresh tariff. The desolate

buildings, with their limited natural light and evocative empty halls, provided the perfect opportunity to put the phone’s brighter lens and larger

pixel image sensor to the test.

O2 will host an exhibition of the photographer’s work next month within their new concept stores

in Manchester’s Market Street and London’s Westfield White City shopping centre. This will be the

last chance to see the buildings in the original state as both St Clements Hospital and London Road

Fire Station are set to be developed into flats by Allied who are experienced in regenerating

distressed and historic buildings.

Marland was granted access to the disused

Fire Station on London Road, which has

remained untouched for nearly 40 years despite being a stone’s throw away from Piccadilly

Station. The atmospheric shots capture the darkened crumbling training rooms, dormitories,

club rooms and layers of peeling wallpaper that each tell a story of their own.

Marland also ventured into London’s old St Clement’s hospital, capturing the eerie hallways

and imposing staircase ahead of building work commencing next year. The exhibition also

includes stunning shots of the crumbling Asylum church in Peckham and the impressive

Bexley Pumping Station, currently being restored to its former glory.

Andrew Marland said: “Working with O2 and Samsung has allowed me to create an

exhibition that showcases the hidden beauty in these grand old buildings for everyone to

enjoy before they go into the next stage of redevelopment.”

Nina Bibby, O2’s Marketing and Consumer Director, added: ‘The captivating images which

Andrew produced using the Samsung Galaxy S7 really show that high quality pictures don’t

need specialist equipment any more. With smartphones now an essential element of our

everyday lives, the opportunity to take professional images truly is at our fingertips –

especially with expert O2 Gurus who can help you get the best from your phone’s camera.”

The Samsung Galaxy S7 and S7 edge are now available to buy at O2.co.uk and in O2 stores,

including on the newest version of O2 Refresh. Customers who take this option and trade in

their S7 or S7 edge at an O2 store after twelve months will have any outstanding Phone Plan

first smartphones to use the latest dual photodiode sensor technology. Instantly focusing on

objects, their Dual Pixel 12MP camera is the fastest available, delivering blur-free photos. For more information, visit the O2 online shop.
