This is a great shot, the lighting is spot on and the dark background makes the trunk really pop out.
I agree. It makes the trunk look menacing and yet inviting at the same time.
I third that.
Nice shot...

The trunk itself is probably worht at least a $100
I would love to find a trunk like this all cleaned up. That is beautiful.
That is a gorgeous shot!
I love the simplicity and lighting of this, quite peaceful.
omg that is beautiful
creepy but nice
wonder what stories it could tell?

Hey Motts this would really look cool as a wallpaper,
Love that trunk!
I have a trunk exactly like that! Brought to Sweden from the US by some ancestors.
This shot is so intriguing...I wanna reach in and open the trunk.
speaking of opening it, did you try Motts?
What Vacant NJ said, exactly! Terrific shot!
Thanks for mentioning that it was empty :-). There's NO way I could have seen this and NOT looked inside if it was unlocked.....;-)
There's a creepy monster inside like in that old Creepshow movie. I hate when that thing comes out of there.
almost soothing after the last shot. thanks
AVAST Matey! Wouldjyer like to take it fer a spell?...............
I can just hear a gurgly voice from inside it :
"Hey kid....C'mere...stick out your tounge."
Wouldn't that make a great accent piece! Coffee table, side board, storage chest, etc.

Is there a lone chair in there?
You found my long lost uncle Mortimer Q. Snodgrass. Its an old family story, about this trunk found in the basement of a distant but close relative. You know the third first cousin twice removed kind; the 'aunt' as we called her died at the approximate age of somewhere between 98-107 (no one knew her birthdate for sure); anyway in the trunk was 'uncle mort' the ventriloquist dummy she had adopted. And this trunk & the lighting reminds me of uncle mort's home...
Very cool, reminds me of a scene in the original Myst computer game.

Very cool
would make a great wallpaper.
Stunning trunk... Stunning lighting!
Maybe a rich patient brought it with them, his/her relatives thinking the hospital would take care of it.
I have one like that in my bedroom.
beautifull motts great shot
such great finds motts!
It's sitting there waiting for showtime.
Seems like something out of a horror movie...what's in the trunk?
" it was empty".. Are you sure? [evil grin]
Motts did you opened the trunk to see whats inside on it????????
I have an old trunk just like this. Beautiful shot as always!
How did you get this lighting? Or was it easy just because the room was so huge an empty?
i keep expecting a contortionist to pop out of the trunk .
nice picture .
(:
I'm going to pretend you said "the box could not be opened". Oooo how exciting that would be... secrets secrets!!
Outstanding pic. Has all the positives.
Must...resist... Must...not...open...it...
i have one just like that just a little shorter that I bought at an antique store to put my 18th century clothing for reenactments when I'm not using them. I used to bring the whole thing to put in my tent during overnight encampments
Would make a good restoration project...
Yeah, I wouldn't even go NEAR that place, and it's definitely creepy that there's just a random chest.. I wouldn't look inside it even if I was there lol
What's in the trunk Uncle Louie?
Looks so like the one in Horror in the Attic/The Attic Expeditions.. Wonder when he'll come open the it, and find himself staring up at him..
I agree with Autoguy, this looks like the trunk in the old Creepshow movie....
After seeing that cat, I don't even wanna know what could possibly be lurking inside that chest. lol.
That's just too bad.
This item is beautiful, I wonder no one stole it.
That trunk is very old. Well over 100 years.
so is there junk in that trunk?

quick question: not knowing what's in it, do you open it? logic would dictate no, wouldn't it? is it complacency? o.k. , I have an active imagination, but if you're checking out this site, you do too.
just having a little fun. But still - a good point.
Goregous!
I want there to be legs that pop out the bottom, like Luggage from Terry Pratchett's DiscWorld novels!
we used to have an old trunk like that... i think it came fro Ireland or England
Looks like something from the Titanic.
wow looks nice just dust it off fix some stuff on it and you are good to go!
