Motts, did you touch up the colors in photoshop, or is this how it actually looked?

judoka275, yeah, it also reminds me of that one part in Equilibrium just before he tears the plastic film off the window and is crying because the world looks so beautiful and it really impatcs him because he's never felt emotions before.

*writes some really bad emo poetry as if I'm inspired by the darkness*

Sorry, had to take it.

Very striking image. Once again, you are the master of the dual focal points and light.

I like the general muted quality of the image and then the fact that certain colors pop out. The lighting is superb.

I am amused Mr. Motts. that you photographed this picture. Patients would quite often sit facing a corner because it helped them feel as though they had some privacy, or in rare cases simply to spite the doctors and guards.

I always hold Mental Hospitals with the up most repsect. seeing as I myself have been relocated to several before finnaly being let out. this picture really speaks to me because of the over head beams. they seem to complex and yet so simple and they apear to accept their solitude. but what i wonder about is the word "Fleigs" on the side of the latter

could have been bodies down there.

this is an interseting picture. however the first things my eyes noticed was not the house...or even the trees but the stars that are in slight veiw along the top framing the house.

Dear Motts....i have been checking out this site for quite some time now but have yet to comment untill this day. a good bit of you pictures speak out to me but this picture really caught my attention. i am not able to look at a picture as a whole. i look at details one by one then slowly peice it all together. my eyes where drawn mostly to the gass on the left. the way it is cracked and not broken and the light hits it reminds me of something out of my past. this is a picture worth commending.

i have to say that you guys did great I went to this hospital before and I felt a spiritual force

I've seen at least 20-30 abandoned morgues, and have never seen a sealed off the refrigeration unit. The bodies aren't left inside when a hospital closes.

thats shit is crazy

I've been printing out some of these beautiful pictures -- which is really all that's going to be left after they level the place.

I check the Danvers websites almost every day to check on the demolition. I don't know why I do it, it makes me sick that they are destroying most of the Kirkbride. Absolute insanity!
