WOW! What a room! And that light fixture that is not a soap dispencer! It looks like the room was just closed the other day! What room was this? (and that carpet...?)

Wow Motts you did that "thang" with the light again! I swear you must camp out in these places for days, just waiting for the exact moment.....

That is not a light or a soap dispenser.

It is in fact a UFO!

I'm in love. This is the room where I would put my bed right by the two windows up aganst the wall. Or not even have a bed just a mattress on the ground so i can sit comfortably and read books all day long.

Motts, what does the title mean?

Do you mean "der Geist der stets ver·neint ?" (the spirit that ever denies)?

Or he could have just meant spirits

I love how you've captured the light filtering through the window panes and how it becomes a spotlight to the dancing swirls of color from the designs on the rug.

I am in agreement. It's so pristine, it doesn't even look like it belongs with the other photos.

Down at heel elegance would be a good description for this sot Beauty with a hint of decay .

This room doesn't look too bad; almost like a victorian atmosphere. I wonder whose room this was?

Hmm... They must have ordered their carpet from the same guys who sell carpet to the Casinos in Las Vegas... I have seen that pattern...

Nice shot Mr. Motts.

My eye was drawn to the carpet in this pic. Look how clean it is. Like someone knew you were coming Mr. Motts and did it up just for you

It almost looks like someone has been cleaning up somewhat in this room, maybe a fan of the carpet? The pattern reminds me of the ocean during a storm. It gives the room movement. I actually have similar widow shelf boxes in my living room! That modern light fixture/UFO/soap dispenser looks out of place with the more Victorian decor.

Hey Motts? Ever done any paranormal investigating in these places? Next time bring an EMFmeter, that light might not be just "light". lol.

Beautiful Motts. Love the carpet. But I'm glad it's not in my house. :)

Yes I believe the window was boarded, and no I don't believe in ghosts :)

See? Now, to me, this looks like a crazy-cool corner in a kitchen. With funkadellic carpet to boot.

Breath taking colours, Motts!

Ok maybe I just never noticed, but I don't recall ever seeing a rug in these places. Motts, any idea what this room was...office (which would explain the rug)?

It was difficult to tell what the function of many of the rooms were, but there was quite a lot of carpeting in the buildings.

maybe it's from looking at a bunch of hokey ghost sites for like forever now but i'd swear that it looks like there's someone in that window in the middle of the room.

The slanted rays of light thru the window is mesmerizing and very melancholy.

Yes, it is a very haunting picture for me. It reminds me of summer for some strange reason. I can imagine being in that room alone with absolute silence and feeling depressed. Beautiful picture by the way.

Katrina, Ya did GREAT!!! Keep them coming. I live in the US and those Brits. can't speek good english either. HA HA HA!!!! Now cool down guys!!! I WAS JUST KIDDING!!!!! I couldn't resist!!!! PLEEZE DON'T HIT ME!!!
As far as the photo goes, among all the decay, this room remains almost prestine. Hummmm
This room must have been for someone, or some activity that was really importaint (the cornesses, ya know they are back in vogue) . Maybe where they took the family members to inform them of the death of a loveone .
nevermore

Eck......! It's a room that Martha Stewart would probably approve of. It has it's powder dry, 50's housewife appeal. Pink is the nemesis of all colors!

I used to live in a house that was the smae color of pink, although I was told the color was actually "salmon" LMFAO. And what color is a salmon???

Awesome shot, I love how the shadows from the unboarded window form crosses in the borded up ones.
