Description

Within the walls of this vacant asylum there is a sense of unease. It creeps up on you and makes the little hairs on your neck stand at end. It makes you uncomfortable. The stinging sensation of vigilance. Perhaps they are the spirits, remnants of people that once occupied this space. Or perhaps the walls of the structure absorbed the maccabre happenings and are speaking to us. I hope this takes you there.

If you've ever watched the movie, "Cure" this image sends some major tingles down the spine. The sense of desolation you've captured is very strong in this image. Fantastic job.

Great picture. I would have prefered without the personnage to complete the emptiness feeling and let the imagination.( But that's only my opinon)

Great job - black and white was the right way to go. I like it as is, but would also not mind seeing some of these wonderful shots without the model in them. Great work - keep em coming!

I think this image is the most powerful one of the three so far. In part because it is B&W, but because we are given the oppertunity to explore the facility and make certain discoveries. If I think back to 'If Walls Could Talk', I woould say that if that image were B&W and the lighting more uneven and somber, it wouold be fitting to this one. Also in regards to yesterdays image I felt I was to close to the sunject and I was not allowed to seek her out as in this image is something to also think about. I am sure that yesterdays photograph had also space issues as it was most likely confining, but maybe not a straight forward angle but more from the side. So back to this one. You have something powerful going on and I will be looking forward to the next image.
