The locations are amazing, I love your photographs very much. Thanks for bringing the site back.

I agree with Jaimie. I usually don't have favourites of anything, but you just rule. This site is one of the first places I look when I need inspiration for painting.

Wallpaper, hooray! thx :)

Wallpaper please?

Anybody else notice the boobs spraypainted on the door that's lying on the floor?

Dag, Skyguy beat me to it. I was about to say they were transporter pads.

That's a fun wallpaper, nice touch making the Opacity fit inside the porthole!

Sure it's lush, but I don't think it was meant to be!

I'm absolutely amazed, it has stood still in time. I love that slouched old bastard leaning against the wall, is he a permenat part of the structure or is he just an another illusion of what was and shall never be again. I love it.

Todd,

Feel free to share mine anytime. I get kicked off frequently, so there's always room. :-)

Four to beam down...

Thank you; the ripples were from a leaking ceiling above.

The old picture of this room looks more like a sanitarium than most of the other rooms so far. So sterile and boring despite the amazing architecture.

Great shot of the windows in the reflection of the water, with the island of loose rubble in the center. Very cool! I like the two drops in the water as well- makes for an even more interesting reflection. I wonder if there were just drips, or if something was dropped in the water intentionally for the effect? Either way, great shot!

I love the many pilasters that this old gracious place was set up with. It gave it a little more elegance and enchanement than would have given in a lesser place.

These old radiators remind me of the times when I worked at NSH when I worried that I would be thrown into them by a crazed patient and coming out of it with second degree burn.
