Interresting..
Just looks like an old house from the opener.
YES!!! A new update - with 51 pictures!!! You rock!

Anyways, that fence looks purple...interesting.
WaHooo! New Pics!!!
Wrought Iron will turn a purplish-red as it oxidizes.

Way cool picture!!
I agree with Lynne, this shot looks like it's an old house. Love the fence!
One day I'm going to get in trouble for looking at this site at work, but I like it. I don't have internet or a computer at home :(
I look at this site all the time aswell.I came across it when someone at the ghoststudy messageboard noticed an interesting anomaly/optical illusion in one of the photos and I have been here ever since.
THAT FAB FENCE LOOKS ORIGINAL. FAB... AGAIN!!!
Good you've updated. I've been reading for a while but never comment.
I wish I could go and explore stuff like this!! You've taken us there. Thank you!
Cool fence.
Frog post is frowning.....:-(
yes!!! i agree with tami
Nice fence!
Criminals can just jump over this fence...
FANTASTIC!!!!!!! Would I ever love to get into this place; I mean just to look around, of course!
heyy motts, just a suggestion, but if you like jails and stuff, you should check out the penatentiary in philly. it might not be as fun, because you are ALLOWED there (you can take tours and stuff) but is intresting. there is Al Capone's cell, a place called the pit or the hole or something like that, death row, ect.
motts, just remembered what it was called. Eastern State Penatentiary.
Thanks, I have photographed Eastern State Penn already, it's just waiting to be put up ;)
Fantastic! Eastern State! Been waiting for that one.
My favorite paranormal investigators, TAPS, went there and they caught a "shadow person" on film. It was really cool. Motts I hope you caught him.
Ozzy! T.A.P.S rocks, lol. Okay but im getting off topic, i really like this pic motts. It has that errie and creepy look to it. Lol, But it would seem all your pictures do. Can you imagen all the inmates that sall this?
What ever happened to T.A.P.S.? It's not on the Sci Fi channel any more, at least where I live in Maryland. I miss it!
I heard that TAPS won't be back until late spring.
What a fence, Awsome!!! Mr. Motts, I was just looking at all the weeds. I was wondering if u get infested with ticks or chiggers when u do these shoots? As a person who grew up out in the country, I just don't see how u can keep from it. : )
I've had my share of ticks... just need to check for them at the end of the day.
I don't think i've ever seen a fence corner ornament like that before.

Eastern State.I toured there about 12 years ago;took notes on a tiny notepad...
Nice place.
Great photos; I briefly explored the place when I was about 11 with my father...we were boating and decided to beach the boat to take a walk and ended up crossing the rails and finding this place. Must have been abandoned less than a year at that point, it was overgrown but otherwise looked perfect. Lousy industrial area, but really if the city ever crawls out of depression it would be a great place for condos, right on the water, make a footbridge over the rails and a little seasonal dock, the valley yuppies would flock...
i like that shade of purple... sorry not to start another intelectual conversation. go on.
