What year was this photo taken in?

Very sad what happened to this building. It looks like a fairytale, but never got a fairytale ending. I wish the building could have been saved ( Halycon Hall) because it was so just so rare a building. Even in abandonment, it's so lovely. I came across abandoned pics of it on flickr. I guess all things fall to time though. But I know some of the newer dorms were turned into apartments, so one wishes Halycon hall could have been saved too. What was the Grape Shade? Also. does anyone know the condition of the science building today? I saw insome pics on flickr that there is also an abandoned house on the Bennet property- was this the president's house? Just curious.

This amusement park is totally fucked up. I love it. They don't make them as creepy as they used to.

Did you shoot in raw with a high ISO? I notice I get a weird grain effect when I really push an exposure with a low ISO, but I don't get the striping so much.

This is one location where I prefer the broken windows to intact ones. It adds a whole other element of destroyed beauty.

I'm guessing that they used a type of gurnery with a hydraulic system in order to get bodies in/out of the top cubbies....at least, that's what makes sense to me.

So, you're saying that all these buildings in this shot, save the clocktower, are gone? :(

I like the fact that you centered the window in this shot. It adds an eerie quality to the image.

The lighting and colors are beautiful. I also love the perspective.

This reminds me of the level in Thief: Deadly Shadows called Robbing the Cradle. It's one of the most immersive, frightening, and beautiful levels ever created for a video game.

It reminds me of Silent Hill.

This is just stunning. The quality of light is just incredible.

Motts, how do you white balance? Is it just left on automatic, do you custom white balance to get some of the trippy colors in stuff like "Center Stairs", or is the majority of it post processing?

I enjoy the fact that the combination of the moon and the long exposure make it look like daytime.

I like the combination of disjointed nature of the radiators and the symmetry of the windows. I love the consciousness that goes into the composition.
