Lovely architecture. It softens the buildings lines. And the stars add a wonderfully dreamy touch. A most visually edible photo, Mr. Motts! Derbies off to you!

I love the rounded rooms in these asylums, It seems most of them had the rounded rooms.

Truly beautiful!

wow, great photo. i can't believe this place is going to get torn down! we used to go exploring this place back in '88, and it was one of the most amazing settings ever--there's a great and longer story about our adventures including being chased out of the asylum by a former (?) resident and then a discussion with a waiting police officer outside, someday i'll write it all down. Mott--thank you so much for documenting it...i have some old black and whites from back then, but somehow i always thought this place would be around, and i'm so glad you've got a library of great shots.

Cool pixie, I hope you still have your photos, I'm still kicking myself in the ass for not taking photos of the laboratory back when it was full of equipment!
