I bruised the @#$@#$%@#$@# out of my leg getting in here. A week later and my leg is still numb where I hit my leg. Yay nerve damage!

I walked right out the front door when I left and stopped to wave at the cameras.

This is where the city's poorest of the poor went to get health care. The corporation that bought the hospital told them to F' off and closed most of this place, including this still well stocked children's ward. Lots of good equipment sits inside here rotting away when it should be used to help treat the indigent. Very sad.

My first set that I've processed with Lightroom and CS3. A HUGE improvement over The Gimp and well worth the cost (still I'm glad I had a University discount...)

The hallways here are great in a semi modern sort of way

    Interesting series.
    Personally, I think the last comic shot ruins the quiet surreal mood of the series.

    Yup too bad that the hospital is closed.

    Comic relief after such despairing shots of a Hospital could be good, but that one seems inappropriate.

    Wish I had the opportunity for shooting such a series, but I probably would not be so daring on entering such a building.

    Great work, except as noted.
