what Lynne was saying is not only correct, but there was an exact color that was used in many institutions that had to be discontinued for the very reasons she stated, though from what i recall, the phrase "more insane," not "more revved up" was used.
the name of the color (presumably this one) was/is called Baker's Pink.

You've amazed me again with another dark framed shot.. The autumn colors of the leaves really bring this image to life..

Spectacular contrast of light and dark colors..

Another beautiful dark framed shot..

I love this shot..

The dark framing around the outside light and the splash of red really make the picture..

That is beautiful..

Great play of shadow and light across the chalkboard..

Excellent shot.. Too bad you didn't wait until dusk, would have produced a fabulous shot..

Another beautiful shot, and I love the details you provide.. In this case the clock.. Allows everyone to "feel" like they are there..

Beautiful shot.. It leaves someone imagining how the patients must have been thinking as they looked out the windows.. Trapped..

Great shot.. Great stonemasonry..

I believe that most iron work like this at the peaks were actually functional.. Instead of hitting the building, lightening would hit the iron work which was grounded.. But instead of having an iron rod sticking up in the air, they fashioned them into intricate designs..

Love the shot, really captures the feeling of actually being on the roof.. Dizzying..

Beautiful craftsmanship on the fire place, and the marble is a great contrast to the mauve(?) wall and blue carpet..
