Great angle,great shot...strange topic and circumstance.

I concurr with all above statements. Imagine being a child in this establishment? That must have really sucked.

Indeed, you're right. That would deter me, as a patient from even wanting to know what's behind that door.

Wow, this shot is breath taking in it's own sort of way. It looks more like a painting than a photograph. It's magnificent.

Indeed, I think this is one of your best shots, Motts. Witht he lighting the way it is, I can almost expect something or some one to come stumbling through that door and out of the shadows. Simply awesome.

This location just seems to get more strange and random, doesn't it?

I really like that one, Motts! It's such a fun shot. Perhaps I should recommend it as a *gasp* desktop wallpaper?
I probably would have struck the same pose, you know. It was totally called for, but I as well, am in wonder as to how you were able to perform such a photo with a straight face?

Now, that lighting fixture is extremely odd...It seems to take up a good portion of the room. Whatever it is, it seems to be a good eye-grabber.
It just happens to be...very....strange.

I really do love the angle that you used. It just seems like the perfect angle for a topic such as this.

If your assumption is correct, then the picture truly does portray that. Imagine being a child in this place?
It must have been as ominous and eerie as the lighting in the picture, which I must add, is wonderful.

The topic of the fresco image is highly interesting...maybe it was supposed to be a Catholic establishment, or something of the sort?

I agree with Ed and Barbara.
Though I must say, the lighting fixture is slightly interesting.

I'd be concerned about the ceiling falling down on me, just look at how it's just kinda hanging there...

Nah I think they were all empty... Ed, I only took these two shots unfortunately.

Yeah the tiles were all coming up.
