Toured the prison in philadelphia on Sunday. Very interesting, very creepy. I wasn't able to spend much time on composition because I had to stay with the group tour, but I got a few keepers I think.

This is one of the cells. It started with all inmates in solitary, but they eventially figured out that wasn't great for mental health.

This is one of the cellblocks. Each block stems off a center hub so you can see everything from one central location.

This is one of teh cell doors with some heavy pp.

I wish I could have gotten some of the wall, but I only had my 35mm 1.8 and couldn't get far enough away to get a decent shot of it. It was fun though, and I'd recommend it to anyone in the area.
