what a lonely picture .

Hey I want to add to the same thing Jackie and Lilly said I also see a skull two acually!!!!

It looks like interrogation instead of examination..........

Ahh.... the uses I would have for this.....rubs hands together and cackles madly. Seriously I would like to mount something like this in my trunk with a mechanism that would cause it to start rising out of the trunk when tailgaters get too close, give them something to think about.

P.S. I hope my silly remark doesn't offend anyone, I was just trying to be silly and lighten the mood here.

Can't we all just look at the pretty pictures and get along? I like the little sheep on the bottom left who is surfing on top of the crocs face, he's like "whooa I'm surfing" and the croc won't eat him because he obviously has the same eye disorder Little Orphan Annie did!
Ok, now back to the bickering and long winded debates, carry on!

Jamara,

Please see below all comments:

" Memories and stories from past employees, visitors or patients are gratefully welcomed, they help keep these places alive!" Also please note about flaming. Thank you for your consideration of the site rules.

I think the only person coming across as arrogant Jamara is you.

AWESOME shot Motts!

Again...I didn't read past the first half of the posts. People are repeating themselves and not focusing on what the real topic here is: THE PHOTOGRAPH. =[

While I agree all the comments insisting there were abuse and dreadful things happening in these facilities 24/7/365 are tiresome, I do not agree on the arrogant stance of some of my fellow healthcare workers. Of course most ppl not experienced in healthcare would assume horrible things always happened in these places. They are dark and mysterious and play with your head until you could actually believe the urban legends happened. Most ppl have an active imagination, and this type of art promotes the use of that imagination. Is this wrong? Not in my opinion. I for one am intelligent enough to weed through the myths and rumours for the more factual comments. I am assuming 3/4 of the other Opacity addicts are as well. (lets hope so). =]

Oh wow !
Poem and photo go together so beautifully!

Excellent shot. It's nice to see you once in awhile, Motts, but this sneaking up behind will give this old lady a heart attack! =]

haha..sorry, but that made me laugh. The back-up batteries are only good for a certain amount of time. Usually a matter of hours.

Um...I see no "ghost" , but this shot is fantastic. It almost looks like the window and bricks are in the foreground. Very cool.
