Creepy!

Suck to be in there

by the way..... creepy picture.

Thanks, I took a photo class in college but didn't fare too well until I found abandoned buildings to shoot.

WOW!!!! again you have floored me with your hallway shot. You havr such a great talent, did you study photography or was it just something that you just picked up and realized that you were really good at? Because it takes a pair of good eyes to compose this.

Just sitting here in the window waiting on a huge snow storm to arrive and came across this...... amazing.... the depth, lighting..... I'm without words..... you really captured the size.....WOW!!!!!!

I must agree with Tootuncommon. I am new to the site as well and have really enjoyed the many comments and have learned alot from them being here and I actually feel that I can comment whereas I don't on any other site that I have been on. But I do realize how long that the comment pages can get because I am one of the ones who sit up late reading all of them. So maybe a little pruning may be in order.

My mum would have called it a "wigwam for a gooses bridle" !!

This is one of the many rooms that i never got to see. too many cops and security. the last time i tried to go there the cops were in the parking lot like they were waiting for me!

Code - i was up there a few times, i heard and saw a few things that i could not explain. freaked me out!

My neighbor is a retired nurse from here and she refuses to talk about the kinds of atrocities that were done to the patients by other patients and by the Drs. She states that the only reason she stayed the 35 years she was there is because she thought she could make a difference and felt sorry for them.

very nice set of picures, i have always been interested in the history of places like this..i look at all these shots and think, "damn what if walls could talk?" and "what have these walls seen in there lifetime..."

I still cannot believe what Wal-mart did. I am NEVER shopping there again.

loving those curtains! really!

perfection and beyond words!
