I love the colors in this shot. Amazing to find such beauty in such a place.

The colors and lighting in this are amazing. I love this photo. I would love a wallpaper of this.

I would love to find a trunk like this all cleaned up. That is beautiful.

I love this shot, very well composed. It gives me the creeps, but, I love it.

It looks almost like a vacuum sealer of some sort. Just my 2 cents

I would love that on my desktop at work.

Reminds me of a military bunk bed, only without the bunk portion. Does that make sense?

Amazing shot, I love the way the light stretches the room.

Them are pretty sweet, remind me of tables. Just toss a decent top on them, and you are ready to eat.

I must say, this is my favorite gallery so far. Thank you Mr. Motts for giving places like this respect. Your style, class, and ethics are an inspiration to many of us.

And thank you again for allowing us to see the world through your eyes. Amazing.

They remind me of pepto bismol. I can taste that stuff just looking at these sinks. Demented, truly demented to have sinks like that.

Chances are Keely, if he wasn't, he wouldn't say so. ; )

Oh come on people, this is obviously where they kept the poisons they slipped into the patients food =P

*ducks and runs away from Lynne*

Kidding, the above statements make sense.

"This place feels so unfamiliar
And yet I know it well
I think I used to belong here
But the only way I can tell
Is that I miss you still
And I cannot find you here"

Whoa C-Note, you are buying them at the wrong place dear, they are only $5

In Canada, I was shocked to pay $12 for the generics.

I want to reach out and touch it. I can imagine what it would have been like in the castle in it's hayday, and even moreso had it been completed. Imagine the historical figures that may have walked through here, and touched these very same walls.

Ahh yes, falling English limestone, much more treacherous than the American counterpart.... =P

Couldn't resist that one

Thanks Lynne, I'm sure my tech lead will love the reason I need a new keyboard, mouse, and monitor is because I spit coffee on the whole setup and I'm pretty sure it's going to die as soon as I'm done typing =P

Sam, the head would have been removed (if in fact it didn't fall off, or become target practice like the Shinx's nose did) well after the castle was built, or somewhat built, as it was not completed. Chances are though, it fell off.

These windows seem out of place. Something so mid-eastern in the middle of something so gothic. Threw me for a loop.

Man, I wish I could rescue the skylights and lattice work from this place. You just don't see that kind of craftsmanship anymore, even in the most expensive, creative mansions. Makes me sad.

I'm pretty sure Weird Woman is correct, I remember seeing things like this when I did remodeling in homes years ago. The heating pipes would be attached to these anchors between the dissipation fins.

C-Note, I have to ask, as a fellow Michigander, what is Piking? I've not been introduced to that term before. Unless you are talking about Pike fishing, I've heard the term used in that regard. If it's something that is not appropriate for this site, PM or email me. Email is my name at gmail dot com.

I take the sister thing back, sorry, I don't believe it was Poe's brother that wrote that book, he wrote House of Leaves which is a title of one of her albums also. Sorry.

Song still is fitting here though =)
