Good. A morgue shot. I used to work as a morgue attendent way back when. Actually I was just interning there so I wasn't getting paid but it was okay. About this picture: amazing.

@bonnie-I like your mom's idea of recycling the old drawers! At least it had an interesting history. As a kid, I remember my dad telling me of a guy who bought an old funeral hearse and used it as a station wagon for his kids to sit in the back! Talk about re-purpose! He even kept the curtains in the back-how macabre!

looks real scary
Still I wonder what was so important to need a safe. Perhaps the records of employees that went crazy from the job? Maybe they were using the patient for secret biochemical experiments? It could be that the head person was hiding money from his wife...lol

creepy.
the doors are beautiful but also very sturdy. To keep one in or out. Never to escape....
I love this one. Lichen- one of my favorite elements of dis-use.
I love this picture. You wouldn't think red would be a color choice for a psychiatric hospital. By choosing black and white for some photo's and color for others- you're doing a wonderful job showing the creepiness of this abandoned hospital. You've done an excellent job.
