Great use of perspective and light. I used to work a couple of blocks from this place. It's supposed to be haunted. It was built in the early 1800's and was used up into the early 20th century. Nice work.

ominous and bleak. how old is the penitentery anyways? it looks like an old prison or atleast an old area of the prison

Very nice, I'd love to check that place out. I like the way the light coming in from above is fuzzy and noisy, it adds to the creepy ambience.

The light that comes thru the roof is so surreal, I was like what the hell when I first saw it
