I believe it was on the second floor, but it's been a while.

Motts, do you recall if this was the very top floor? The ceilings seem lower than in the other rooms you took photos of.

A VERY interesting photo, indeed, Motts! I was able to see most of what everyone else could in this pic.

I see a sad beauty in this photograph, Motts.

To me this frightening picture is drawing you onto the Ward. It's as if an unseen voice is commanding you to, ''ENTER the belly of the Beast!'' You try to resist it, but you can't. You are mesmerized by the voice and the darkness as they draw you into the Ward.....*Shudder!*

Another really nice photo, Motts! This large room reminds me of a restaurant my family used to go to on Sunday afternoons, when I was a child. The bars on the windows remind me of the glass blocks in the windows of the restaurant.

Hey! Another ''lone chair''! I stand corrected! I thought you only took one pic of à ''lone chair'' per gallery, Motts. Obviously, I was wrong! : ))

I really love this pic, Motts! Did you ever publish a book? It is 2014 now. If you have published a book, I'd love to know where I can purchase it! Thanks!

Oh! I am so there! I can just see myself curled up in a comfortable chair (positioned in the niche where all the windows are) reading an interesting book. I don't feel intimidated by this particular space at all!

Hmm...I'm not gonna venture a guess as to exactly what kind of chair it is. But I am willing to bet this is Motts' ''lone chair'' shot for this particular gallery! : ))

Why the blanket in the casket? I mean, seriously? Did someone put it in there thinking it would help keep a dead body warm!? : /

Motts, this is quite an artistic photo! I think your shooting it in B & W just made it all the more better...and scarier. : )

I think this 'old style' coffin is pretty neat! Thanks for taking a photo of it for us all, Motts!

I love this photo. I think it's because the golden sunlight is such a contrast to the devastation of the place. It wonderful to be able to see beauty, even in ruins.
