I wish that poster was up at my office, they damn near killed me during my most recent gran-mal episode.

My father (who worked in the hospital kitchens) was the chapel organist throughout the 1970s and 1980s. I wonder if he was the last to play it?

I used to attend this chapel as a child and teenager in the 1970s.

The altar (see later picture) was on the small platform at the far end, surrounded by a wooden communion rail, part of which can still be seen in the picture.

By tradition, patients sat to the left of the columns, staff's families and other members of the public sat on the right. Although the chapel was intended for staff and patients, local villagers in-the-know also attended, to save themselves the two-mile journey to the nearest Catholic church. You can see the bare wood areas of the floor where the pews were, with a wide surfaced aisle down the middle.

The two doors on the right led to the priest's vestry and the confessional.

These must be the waste left over from patients who underwent a transorbital lobotomy. I'm really shock that they were not sent to a incinerator and just left there.

Several have commented at the oddity that is a "closing" plaque. This is in Rhode Island. As a resident here, practically *every*thing needs a plaque or tag to put the "names" up of those responsible for the good work, be it a new construction, or a tear down/decommission.

J-131274: What Motts means here is that the photo was shot using infrared film and an infrared filter on the lens. I don't know if you could call that an "effect," because the camera is only capturing wavelengths the human eye can't perceive, which the film then translates into shades of gray that we can see. On the other hand, "effects" that modern digital cameras do take the visible light captured by the camera and process that data to create the desired effect.

I think what you're asking for is a shot on black and white or color film for comparison, which would have required changing film types, removing the filter, and then setting the camera back up to take the exact same shot. Unless Motts did that, there's no picture existing with "no effects" as in "what the human eye would see".

I hope that makes sense!

awsome color and detail! This is another fine set of shots. Thanks!

Amazing set Motts.

Just in time for Easter.

Perfect angle for this shot. Amazing.

I like how even though it's just a pumping station they put so much effort into making the outside look amazing and even do some details on the columns and things inside.

I think the first big window kind of looks like a face staring out at you

man this stuff is insane im going there in a few weeks gonna be sick!

I've heard stories of this place and how haunted it is..People dieing from experiences theyve had here. Is any of this true?

great set again motts!

Amazing view, waaaaay to high for me! I've heard stories of toilets and sinks taking the dive from up here. LOL you can't stop good 'ole American fun.

That sounds like a photo I'd like to take, but I don't have a boat... oh well. I first fell upon this place a few years ago while taking a random drive. I couldn't stop thinking about getting into 93. I think I could get over the creepyness with enough friends and alcohol, but the thought of a tresspassing summons stops me. This building's history really makes it a haunting sight. I kept thinking I was going to see a little pale girl in a white dress standing in a window =). I love the photo's, Motts. I took a few of my own here, but I really need to get back and take more. There's no shortage of great scenes here.

The movement of the clouds offsets the solidity of that chapel perfectly. Great way to end the set! Awesome stuff as always Motts.

Awesome lighting in this shot!

I just think it is cool how the broken piece seems to form a cross. Pray now, for all hope is lost to those who get their hair styled in this joint.

I'm a newcomer; awsome photography!! I love this site. Keep up the great work!!!

Damn, what a view! Another great set!

Wow. Perfect exposure.

Great shot Motts love the depth and light in this one.

anyone would like to have an arm?
