Last State Hospital

I now live two thousand miles from this place and all of these places; which is perhaps no different than having them in your backyard and no time to go outside. By 2012 I was well into my goal to photograph everything, but 2013 forced the brakes and as time went on I just did other things.

Somehow I went to Somewhere State Hospital by a fluke of schedule and circumstance. Now there are no more state hospitals, but if there's something else I'll find it.

Image heavy set, diptychs thrown in because its healthy to try new things

I love the lines in your shots. Also, the record room doorframe frames the colorful books perfectly.

Nice stuff bossman-really like Blue Ribbon and Circle.




Before a big explore I like to work with leather. The Native Americans always said that working with hides and pelts releases the soul.

Wonderful set! I love the near-monochromatic use of color in many shots, and the odd angles. Great texture and use of light, too. I can't even pick a favorite.

Thanks! I think this was a good way to say goodbye to my home.

Well I found a work-around to my computer issues so I'm back to editing again. I want to get photos from the drive done first, but to be honest I barely took any. For such a huge trip there was almost nothing to photograph...one of the keepers is just a toad at a rest stop! I probably shouldn't have taken the tollway.

I still think about how we must've missed one another by a couple hours at Plymouth on Christmas when we were noobs. Whatever the case I'll follow your work where ever I end up!
