This is a telephone junction box. Very nice shot.

It's neat to see nature at work uninterrupted.

Krankenzimmer just means a patients room at a hospital, or sickroom.

Wow. Any idea what this building was used for? Fascinating architecture. It looks like the surrounding trees are encroaching the concrete.

It says orthopeadic clinic, surgical section, no access permitted.
If anyone´s interested ;)

"Montierer-Werkstatt" wich means assembling-workshop. Don´t know what the first word could mean, maybe an abbrevation.

Very cold & lonely. The barren trees & snow enhance the melancholy tone. It's perfect in B&W.

Does anyone know if it is really possible to catch TB from the items after so many years?
In fact, I´m always asking myself when looking at pics from TB-Hospitals.

Ash, this wasn´t a childrens hospital as far as I know, though I don´t know if there have been young patients too.

I also wonder why there are children on both illustrations - this place doesn´t seem to house children as patients. And I don´t know why there is this focus on wounded arms, too. Sure TB can affect the bones but why always arms?

The sky is falling onto our heads!

I hate graffiti in abandoned buildings. I like graffiti everywhere else, if it´s a good one, but I really hate it in places like these.

I also thought that they are not that nonhazardous. These machines have radioactive material inside thats dangerous even when they´re off, even more of there´s anything broken inside.

It was mentioned some comments before - is it possible to catch TB after such a long time?
I really don´t know and thats something I´m always asking myself when I see pics from TB-hospitals.

My first thought was frogfish, indeed!
