	lola between the light streaming in from above and the open door...freedom...a grabbed opportunity.

	lola my fingers are itching to get a hold of some of those papers....simply because they exist. pipe fittings sound great to me!

	lola the emergence from the dark is just stunning...i seemed to, for a second, see the doors in their original beauty before realizing the room's actual state.

	lola the solid red irritates me...makes me want to bust through it, let something else be seen.

	lola at first glace i thought some sort of alien embryo was bursting out of the wall!!!

Location: York Street Jail  Gallery: The Big House

	lola i'm inclined to agree with the musings....there is a LOT of texture and color behind that door....makes me curious/nervous to find out what's inside

	lola perhaps it is the curve, or simply the railing, but these stairs, very simple invention, have more DEPTH to them than my wee brain can comprehend

	lola the light through the bottom in this shot puts me in mind of a cabinet against a window or some other wholly unmoveable furniture, which only adds to the trapped feeling.

	lola i, too, upon seeing this photo, was startled by the obviously agitating subject matter. quite a contrast to a guitar playing gentleman...

Location: Verden Psychiatric Hospital  Gallery: Uncovering the Past

	lola the orange glow seems reminiscent (sp?) of life in the building...contrasted by the very spotty blues....always a flicker, eh?

	lola the bed in the relative clutter-free section under the light gives a strange feeling of hope to this picture. simply lovely.

Location: Norwich State Hospital  Gallery: Lockdown
