Default Why are you drawn to decay?

(Caveat: with tongue firmly in one cheek ...)

I hang out with four LF and ULF photographers. We are putting together a modest exhibition, and I've noticed something that I've noticed also in the larger population of you sheet film guys. Being a roll film man myself, I just have to wonder why so many LFers are drawn to decay, destruction, or derelict sites and buildings as subject matter. (Don't derail the thread to deny it - you "know" it's true!)

So, is it because the leather bellows on all of the old cameras smell so bad? It's just my theory ...
