I'm struck by the contrasting textures of the fluffy pillow, soft blanket and crunchy paint chips...

That is what I enjoy in urban exploring...seeing how mans creations hold up against nature when no maintenance is done. I have a strong suspicion that if large neutron bombs were set off, eliminating mankind, that within 50-75 years there would be little indication of mankinds brief reign on earth...

Oh, wow. So that's what those are. I used to have a lamp like that (only industrial green, not brown) in my bedroom when I was a kid! I always thought it was kind of weird and wondered why it was made like that. Perhaps it was an old examination lamp, too.

Very weird place for a clown painting.....

amazing amazing site. Am totally in awe of your work and your balls to do it. From all us chickens out here who have desperately wanted to see these places, thank you. I had to comment on this geri chair. We had two of these when I worked at a nursing home and the residents had to share them. They cost thousands of dollars. Why would so many be just left behind? But then, if every place you photographed were cleaned out, we wouldn't get that same sense of what had been, I suppose. I wonder if you are ever tempted to take something from these places. Something amazing just left to rot away. Have you ever been caught in the act? Is there a place or places that you just cannot get into? Are you also studying the science of the decay you find? Looking at certain pictures you can see how different materials hold up much better than others, I wonder if you think these things. Again, thank you.

The sky is beautiful...and the angle is awesome
I have to agree with spacyjo about these beautiful buildings being left to rot is such a waste. Dunno if I'd want them converted to group homes, but there has got to be something we can do with these buildings instead of just building new (and eventually abandoning them too).

That's my friend taking a photo, see the tripod?

It also looks like the Hunchback of Notre Dame walking around back there.
