OK, this is really one of my faves!
I agree, Lynne. It's eerie, but at the same time, beautiful.
I want to sit in this spot and just look out the window for awhile.
The light coming through the window in the closed door adds a lot to the composition, complimenting the main light in the main window while still contrasting darkness in the rest of the room
To sit and to watch the beauty of the outside without worring about what is beyond the door is the question, not, "To be or not to be?"
Apart from the peeling paint, this shot looks like it could be split right down the middle. On the left: Dixmont Hospital 10 years after closing, on the Right: Dixmont hospital 20 years after closing
A closer view of the exit from Hell.

Nice play with the light.
It looks like your standing in the depths of darkness and there just out of reach isHaven and hope. Just like a true hospital.

A very poetic pic.
Looks to me like soembody tried to make a break for it. FREE AT LAST!!!!
can I reserve the last room on the left? yes yes by the windows
