looks like a person's skin cracking. Creepy

Best of the set.

I can see a cartoon schnauzer dog in the paint flakes at the top left of the doorway, and he's got a pleasant smile on his face and a floppy ear.

Woah, there Bessie, this ain't Calcutta, reign those delusions in! Please excuse the little moment I had there.

It's amazing how some of these rooms look so sterile and untouched, yet others look like who did it and ran.

**Sorry that's my mom's way of saying something or someone looks crappy**

did they leave exposed pipies like this around patients...or was this in a basement like area?

Not a basement, but it looked like a kitchen, laundry, or maintenance area where patients might not be able access.

Due to the angle the pipes are installed at. Those pipes look like internal roof drains...or they could even be sewer drains from the upper floors.

Yeah, I'd hope patients couldn't access that, it seems that if they could it would certainlly be a disaster. Even having staff being exposed to it seems like a accident waiting to happen.

Felyne, Wish I could see what you see, but I surely don't. It just looks like old age to me. TIME, it's a killer. Were all gona look like that some day.

Maybe the sewer pipes are for toilets on the other side of the wall

and they were probably encased in a wooden crawlspace that once covered the lower portion of wall with exposed bricks

Motts, I have to admit you reall know how to capture moods. I look at some of your pictures, including this one, and get a sense of overwhelming fear going through my body. Some of you pics frighten me to the point that I can not view them for long periods of time.

Silly I know...

Like something is truly terrifying is about to happen. You are truly gifted photographer to portray feelings like that in your fans.

Keep it up!

"The Darkness is coming..."
