SkedAddled I can't really say why, but I just love this shot.

	SkedAddled And what's the likelihood that a structure built nowadays will have similar decorations? Makes me sick that we're losing so much of this beautiful construction.

	SkedAddled 'Expulsion' is right. Jeebus, it looks like the ceiling has vomited its contents like a living creature!

	SkedAddled Good God! It looks as if every surface and material in here is teeming with mold and fungus. BLECH!

	SkedAddled Looks more like the Overlook Hotel, from 'The Shining' about 75 years later.

	SkedAddled The true shame of it all is that something like this, which was certainly custom-made, has been turned into nothing more than useless rubble.

	SkedAddled Carrion-birds in flight, awaiting a grisly meal...

	SkedAddled There's a sense of dread looming...

	SkedAddled I love the distant repetition. Stunning!

	SkedAddled I'd prefer to think that cross toppled due to nature's forces, rather than vandals.

	SkedAddled Kinda makes you wonder, what's awaiting the person who reaches the top...

Location: Mount Rose Cemetery  Gallery: Rookery

	SkedAddled What a breathtaking view. I'd love to see this same view in full color during late spring or summer, too.

	SkedAddled The phrase 'Stark Beauty' is even more appropriate here.

	SkedAddled Up yours, Grim Reaper! (sorry, I couldn't resist it) What a nice stroke of luck, capturing the bird in flight.

	SkedAddled The pinnacle of the outer arch appears to be a howling face. Trés creepy!

	SkedAddled This one is absolutely stunning in its stark beauty. Well done, Motts.

	SkedAddled Motts, is this another of your phenomenal infrared shots? It's extremely sad, if taken in the context that the family may not have had either enough money or education to put more than simply 'Mother' & 'Father' on the markers.

	SkedAddled There's something extraordinarily dark and macabre about this one.

	SkedAddled I agree with C-Note; it has a sinister look to it.

	SkedAddled This actually looks like an autopsy theater.

Location: Mount Rose Cemetery  Gallery: Rookery

	SkedAddled Rather ominous, considering it's purpose.

Location: Mount Rose Cemetery  Gallery: Rookery

	SkedAddled A shame to witness such grandeur fading into forgotten decay.

	SkedAddled The soaring height of this space is amazing. Nice also to see this without busted-out & boarded-up windows.

Location: Mount Rose Cemetery  Gallery: Rookery

	SkedAddled I agree with Motts; the thing on the wall is almost certainly a lightbox for X-ray prints or other transparencies. I'll echo Jude's other question, though: what's that opening at ground level? I suspect Lynne might know about this...
