1. Photography Gear: To enhance his photography skills, you could gift him high-quality equipment like a wide-angle lens or a tripod. These tools will allow him to capture more detailed and immersive shots during his urban exploration adventures.

2. Abandoned Building Guidebooks: Encourage his exploration endeavors by gifting him guidebooks or coffee table books that showcase abandoned buildings around the world. These books can serve as inspiration and provide him with new locations to explore and photograph.

3. Camera Bag or Backpack: Help him stay organized and protect his gear with a stylish and functional camera bag or backpack. Look for one specifically designed with compartments and padding to keep his equipment safe while he's out exploring abandoned buildings.

4. Historical Architecture Books: Your boyfriend's interest in urban exploration likely stems from his fascination with history and architecture. Consider gifting him books on architectural history or the history of abandoned buildings so that he can further appreciate the stories behind the places he explores.

5. Photo Editing Software: A subscription to professional photo editing software can help take his photography skills to the next level. With editing tools like Adobe Lightroom or Photoshop, he can enhance and refine his urban exploration photos, creating stunning visual stories.

6. Abandoned Building Prints: Find prints or posters of famous abandoned buildings or his favorite shots from his photography adventures. These prints can be framed and displayed at home or in his workspace, serving as a constant reminder of his passion.

7. Urban Exploration Workshop: Surprise him with an urban exploration photography workshop where he can learn from experienced photographers in the field. This hands-on experience will not only enhance his skills but also provide the opportunity to connect with like-minded individuals who share his interests.

8. Customized Camera Strap: Personalize his photography gear with a custom-designed camera strap. You could consider adding his name or a meaningful quote that reflects his love for urban exploration and photography. This thoughtful touch will make him feel like his gear truly represents his unique style.

9. Subscription to Photography Magazines: Enrich his knowledge and creativity with a subscription to photography magazines such as National Geographic or Digital Photography Review.
