I found this photograph laying in this one room, it appears to be of a few men lounging around in a room and the man in the foreground seems to be eating something. The architecture in the photo matched the room pretty well, down to the doors, interior windows, and arched corners. I wonder who took it and why it was left there...

gives you a sense of the people who were there before. Makes you wonder if they are still alive today

That is very interesting, finding a picture like that.

Finding a live piece of history, a portal of sorts, to the past, kind of gives you an idea of what the room looked like during its heyday.

He looked happy--but his leg seemed to have other ideas!

Is the place you were totally unused? Because that picuture looks kind-of new?

Aaah, when there's life in a building, it's just another nursing home full of elderly folk. After they've gone, the myths and legends and gossip starts. When I clean out the drawers at work I find pics like this of our dearly departed. We all do a fond "hey, remember this guy...?" and then we stash the pics somewhere else. It seems like bad karma to throw them out. Probably fell on the floor when they were moving the furniture out.

I like the way how the people in the pic are slightly blurred, as if they took a part of it with them when they went.

WOW!!!! My first thought was that was a Mirror and you were taking the shot of some people that were actually there at that time. I thought it was a refledtion. What a Shot!!!!

This photo gave me serious chills because at first glance I initially thought that I was looking through a missing pane of glass into a room - like an optical illusion!
You should consider posting these on Flickr - they're fantastic!

The strange thing is when you zoom in it appears that their faces are more blurred than any other part of their bodies. Like Grand Duchess said it's like they've taken a part of i t with them.

Blurred by Motts for the sake of privacy, perhaps?
