Artist's Comments

I've had the oppourtunity in the last week to visit an old school in a small town North of me.... I took a ton of pictures showing the decay and scenes from the past there... I loved it... However I learned my lesson today as I went to it and ended up speaking to the police for over an hour... As it had been bought by a private citizen it was trespassing to go inside (which we did)... In all fairness is was wrong of us to go in without permission, but the sucky part was that the reason they had to come see us was that there had been vandalism and people doing drugs inside before... The police seemed sympathetic, and understood that I and my friends were only taking photos, not destroying what I consider a piece of history, even in it's current state... Time will tell if I get charged, but I'm hoping for the best....
In the meantime, I want to share this wonderful, sad, pitiful, amazing place with you... At least I was able to get some photos... :)

We found the locker rooms, and let the flashlight shine through a door's slots... Slivers of light reflected on the wall... I swear I could hear running feet and the sound of laughter, if only in my mind...

This picture is beautiful and the B&W gives it that much more to make it excellent:)
:iconleishy:
This one could almost go in the abstract gallery, just 'cause it takes a few seconds to realize what your looking at.

And :w00t: for the high contrast!! :+fav:
