Gallery of Photos From Inside The Wreckage Of The Costa Concordia Cruise Ship

Remember the disastrous wreck of the Costa Concordia (wiki) in January, 2012 off the coast of Isola del Giglio in Italy?

The wreckage was left to rot in Genoa, and incredibly German photographer Jonathan Danko Kielkowski found it unguarded and totally open for exploration when he arrived to snap some pics for his book Concordia. The German photographer swam out to where the ship – which ran aground off Tuscany in 2012 with the loss of 32 lives – is moored.
“Against all odds, I find the shipwreck freely accessible – neither fences nor security personnel. Rather, the doors are open, lights are turned on, no man can be seen”.
