Well, I guess the plate could be marble, but the letters are made out of iron or another stone and then fixed upon the plate.. Some of the letters fell off, you can cleraly see it!

Incredibly evocative series of photographs - brilliant work. My great-aunt was a nurse there in the 1930s. The place may not have been as dilapidated, but I bet it was every bit as eerie, and maybe moreso, as it wouldn't have been silent...

Imagine if you may, 58 years ago, 2 young men taking a river trip in a 16 ' boat from Canada to the Atlantic ocean. Late after dark one evening we chanced upon an island and beached the boat in order to catch a little sleep. To this day i well remember the sight of a heavy steel door and the inscription " Bannerman's Island Arsenal ". It is now with sadness that i see what has befallen this once proud legacy of a bygone era, but also with joy to see once again those wonders.

OH YEAH MomPink! I am TOTALLY with you on that one. Maybe that would even be a GOOD thing...no technology, just nature as she was meant to be experienced.

SO agreeing with you right now. :)

Thanks for sharing that Mr. Motts. It is always wonderful to "get inside your head" sometimes and find out the reasons behind the pictures. :)

I agree that it adds almost a fairy-tale quality to the room. Anyone else agree?
