Haunting depth of view!
Amazing image, Drake. Love your title. 🙂
Wow! I’m thinking only a flood could cause this kind of destruction. What a shot!
Great shot, Drake!
Wonderful 🙂 Drake, would you like to host a challenge on my blog? Please let me know. I still have openings in the second half of the year. You choose the theme.

Oh, my, Drake! I don’t think this would get restored any time soon!!

This is quite disturbing, Drake, but striking too. So much dilapidation, but still hanging on. Just. I love the way your composition suggests the passage of time, or stepping back in time. And that mysterious dark doorway at the end. V. creepy. I am making it feel better by thinking of Alice in Wonderland, going down the rabbit hole, though come to think of it, that was pretty weird too.
Great comment, Tish!
Oh heck! Where is this poor soul, Drake? I feel the need to run along with a few props! 🙂
Really great shot! Have I seen this one somewhere before? It strikes a chord somehow.

Yes and no, I guess – I have earlier shown some similar but still different photos from the former Whittingham Hospital was a psychiatric hospital in the parish of Whittingham not far from Preston in Lancashire UK – probably at that time the biggest in Europe – in my eyes if one wasn’t sick when one arrived one would soon be sick…
A psychiatric hospital seems very fitting for this shattered soul, Drake. I shall try to stay sane just a little longer 🙂
Overskriften og billedet fik mig til at smile. Jeg gik forbi en lille kolonihave i går. En damecykel var ved at blive opslugt af græsset 🙂 Naturen tager over 🙂 🙂

Netop, med al respekt for (landskabs)arkitekter – der har de mødt deres overmand… 😀
Haha! Ja, især i disse år, hvor ingen ved , hvad vej vinden blæser, eller hvor højt vandet stiger 🙂
Vi mennesker er ikke gode til konsekvensberegninger… 😀
Dejligt du generaliserer 😀 🙂
Ingen nævnt, ingen glemt… 😀
Du skal ha’ et stort 5 tal af mig for alle de smil du har forårsaget i aften 🙂
This post is really impressive ; starting from the title , it sounds perfect for the challenge and the shot , in it’s desolation , is stunning!
Amazing photo, Drake!
Have a great weekend 🙂
XOXO Julia
