The old band room. Once used as a funeral chapel for Fr. Loius Moskal. RIP 2/7/67. Also used as Chapel of Repose for Blessed Sacrament after Holy Thursday services.

St. Joseph's Altar

site of the library

Actually this was the senior classroom. The cabinets behind the classroom held all the textbooks that were used for instruction (bookstore).

Looks as though there's a blue sky over a pebble beach JUST outside the door.

Could be a sniper/guard post.

How the hell do you not get totally freaked going into these places? Do you go by yourself? Great shots totally creepy.

Granted if Motts was taking pictures of a family on vacation or a wedding it would be more critical to do things like that. The way I see it Motts is less a photographer and more an artist who just uses photography as his media. Does that make sense to anyone? To film a decaying ship in perfect light to illuminate details it would look like a picture of a decaying ship, and not a piece of art that's meant to be more.

i love the fact that you can see that wheel thing in both shots.

yea in other countries guys with chains and hand tools would risk life and limb to salvage every scrap from this ship. i think that it is a prime example of our waste.

wow that is a really cool shot.

You say that as if you totally glossed over the comment Motts wrote.

True Kevin, it means a straight on approach.. when refering to a subject being filmed. This comes from the design of a proscenium stage. However, it is a malapropism to use it when talking about photography.

Since we all know what trouble you have with big words I did the leg work for you:
