Lillou i imagine this would have been the only view many a patient had all of those winters past. how they must have longed to see it with out the wire mesh. it's beautiful none the less.

	Lillou did you lift the blanket to see what was underneath?? the mattress looks like one of the fancy articles you might find in a holding cell down at the local jail house. more of those squares.... i wonder what they signified to the patients. they're everywhere. it was like a universal language spoken amongst the inhabitants of the hospital.

	Lillou they look like those little national geographics cards that used to come with the magazines. i used to have a box full of those little cards that looked like photographs. i wonder whatever happened to those.....

	Lillou again with the squares....

	Lillou it's curious how in a place like this that has been left neglected for so many years some things seem to remain untouched while other elements are torn down or fall down. that they remain at all in any condition is marvelous.

	Lillou i like that arrow on the floor pointing to that darkened doorway. either the hall is unsafe and you should turn back or the doorway is unsafe and you should turn back... and the opened door at the end of the hall way, all lit up wth the brightness of the day light outside; looks so inviting.

	Lillou it does seem interesting that the exit is there next to what appears to be a boarded up doorway. nice way to tease the sane or insane for that matter.

	Lillou even the ghosts get the square motif.

Location: Northampton State Hospital  Gallery: Final Winter

	Lillou very geometric... even on the floors. squares echoing their shapes all over the place.

	Lillou cool... the ice comeing down from the ceiling and the formations on the floor are nuts!!

	Lillou i'm in love with this shot. it's gorgeous to say the least.

	Lillou neglect has a way of making things her own....

	Lillou i'm really interested in the layers of paint on this door... it looks like there's something else under there. maybe it's just rust.

	Lillou that's the way out?? sheesh!! the door might say exit on it but, it certainly doesn't scream santuary.

	Lillou wow, that must have been interesting. where to put your step...

	Lillou who hung the flowers?? it's interesting that even though the paint around them is chipping off, these flowers remain. they're serving their orginal purpose no doubt, to brighten up the space. it's like they're intent on that one task despite fate looming on the horizon. it's sort of sad.

	Lillou i love that vine creeping in through the door on the floor. i'm looking at the proximity of the door frame in comparison to that first step and imagine that if you were in a hurry to get through that door you might just make that first step your last.

	Lillou again with the creepy. i half expect at any moment a set of eyes to appear on the other side.

	Lillou okay, "At All Times" is sort of ick. makes you wonder what kind of treatment goes on at all times. and secondly, what's the hole for?? a little primitive for a window don't you think??

	Lillou yummy

	Lillou heavens to mergatroid!! warped suits this building just fine. and yes it is VERY Burtonesque;)

Location: Northampton State Hospital  Gallery: Final Winter

	Lillou when i saw this one the first thing that popped into my mind was an old woman. this building's got grey hair.

	Lillou the backlightt doesn't detract from the beauty of the shot. the glow of the setting sun sets it in a sort of magesty. the title fits perfectly.
