Some folks should put down the bong for a few minutes before trying to type.

Finally ... one of the Interstellar Squirrels of Doom got what was coming to him. Serves 'em right.

If you go to "About," Mr. Motts says:
I use a Canon EOS Digital Rebel and a Sony DSC-F707. Hope that helps. :-)

Cool! Didn't know the Comments had a sound FX coordinator!

Digging the "Before / After" images. It's kind of a trip to see how things were laid out before the place closed down and was left to rot. Nice concept.

First hand research on how long Ewww sticks to walls, PB?

Previous post correction(s)

Should read: "from getting their shoes / pant legs"
OR
wet = dry

Reader's choice.

I don't know why, but photos with reflections have always held a special place in my heart. Love it. You're trully an artist, Motts.

Yes, Mee, it's really a Sludge Monster and not somebody who used garbage bags to keep their shoes / pant legs wet in all that gick.

I'm assuming, Mr. Motts, that the "lightening" is a flashlight in hand with a slow shutter speed?

Nicely done picture, though. I almost thought it was a reflection, what with the two wheel chairs and all.

Ack ... do you really want to know what kind of substance was used to tack that stuff to the walls? It may have been ... ewww.

Lovin' the detailing on the hinges. Now /that's/ art. And the wood? It's beautiful. Wish my kitchen cabinets looked like that.

Where I live most of the old buildings have been in use since the 1850s. The building I work in right now is now the PHF for the county; however, at one time it was the county hospital. The basement is way creepy. It was the mourge as well as the insanity ward. Now it's just storage.

I've already got permission to take a camera down there. Now I just have to remember to take the camera to work.

People with a mentality like Phantom are the reasons why you can't just go dive on The Great Barrier Reef or you have to have a guide going through spectacular natural locations that'd be so much more moving if you didn't have a party of twenty other people with you chattering and blowing the 'mood.'

Why can't a photo be the only trophy needed? Retorical question. People, and I use the term loosely when referring to this kind of mind-set, can be completly selfish and greedy. Which, in turn, just blows the whole thing for the rest of us.

Bah ...

Whoa ... I didn't notice the meteors. Nice catch, Stacy.

Well ... first time posting for me - unfortunatly on a some-what dead topic, it would seem.

I work for our county's PHF. We have two seclusion rooms - both video monitored in the Staff's Station 24/7. In response to Skye's erronous 'facts,' there are indeed *ahem* facilities in both. One piece units of stainless steel much like those in modern county jail cells.

Granted, compared to Lynne I am hardly a poisoned tongue, er, fingers where the technicalities are involved, but I felt compelled to comment.
