Welcome to the very first volume of "Secret Society's"

The main concept behind this Feature is to draw out the attention of this great community and focus it on the secret places in the world we live in. Secret hideouts, shortcuts, special and personal locations, and alot more will fill our volumes in order to bring you out there, closer to exploring and experiencing new, interesting spots, be it urban, rural or just plain unnoticed.

We hope to lure your attention and maybe even give you the opportunity to discover the very spots that our featured photographers have selected to share with you all. Trying to be weekly, we will do our best to feature up to 10 artists, each with a maximum of 2 locations each. It'll probably be hard, but we will try out best!

So with no further ado, enjoy the unseen, unravel the hidden, discover the secret societies.
