I love the wide angle lense. It creates a sense of vertigo.
I seriously wasn't expecting this one. Mouth popped open at this!
I think I'd be too tempted to pad up and fly down those stairs.
might be rust, quinnifer. Looks like some 1950's horror movie mech's leser-known and definitely lesser-feared brother. Poor guy never got the attention he deserved.

Motts, I'd like to see the rest of the place if you ever plan on going back. The breathing difficulties and discomfort might make for extremely interesting photos. I'd love to see if the discomfort shows in your photos.
Dammit, all I see is a little dial face.

people like that (the ones that can't spell and think they have something to prove) are why i hate thee internet. having said that, motts, i love your pictures. they're absolutely gorgeous.

An equisite room. The sun, the space, I feel I could leap and dance in this space and totally free myself. Enlightening.

It's a lot harder to get into these places (the ones that are still open) than it used to be. Once upon a time all it took to be commited to a state hospital was the signature of 2 liscensed physicians. General practitioners not psychiatrists. Now it takes some doing to be admitted to a state hospital, unless the court sends you for evaluation.

I live in N.C., and work in an E.R. This photo reminds me of a story one of our ER Doc's told me about one of our state mental hospitals (Broughton) He said that in the early days of the hospital, patients would actually SLEEP in their simple pine coffins instead of bed's. And, when they died, you simply had to nail the lid on on and bury them. I suppose they thought it was not only cost effective, but convenient as well.
FYI- Your site is amazing!! Fascinating and wonderful photo's- Keep up the great work!!
