this one is poignant...love it.

looks a little like the hypodemic needles of other pics....

does anyone know if it needed a 'driver'?

they DO look dangerous...

i love this....

In response to Mike's comments after reading mine above, I agree that things are just things and shouldn't carry such importance, what I was trying to say about the appraisals was, is this what life is all about? You live, work, accumulate stuff, then eventually die. If you left a ton of crap behind then someone else has to deal with it and either apparise and sell it or just trash it. I decided long ago that friends and relatives are what's important and the stuff comes second. I plan on getting rid of my crap while I am alive so no one else has to deal with it and hopefully who I've given things to will be reminded of me and how well I may have treated them whien I was alive. Of course leaving another kind of legacy behind like something that actually changed or bettered proples lives is the best thing to do. It's amazing how one of Mr. Motts photograps can induce such emotion.

coke bin? please please dear motts, I gotta know...what IS it?

inside the amazing tower, light comes to the brilliant photographer....

:)

love the architecure on that tower...dunno why, but it's graceful to me.

Perspective on this one is cool, looking up towards the ceiling, with the bulb leading the edge

Yup, the vine reminded me of a sine wave!

I think the guys living in here barely had any basic needs, let alone cans spray paint. But the place has been tagged up considerably since these photos; I still doubt any of it was from the homeless living in there.

That's a skylight, although there are a few sizable holes in the roof elsewhere.

Yup, it's a cell block that has been mostly scrapped or dismantled for some reason, no doors or railings.

confess - The tiled area on the first floor might have been showers.

psycho - Thanks, there's definitely a draw to these kinds of places with their histories, and some can really send off a creepy vibe.
