Hi all,
I finally got around to uploading more shots from my visit to the abandoned Whitby Psych Hospital site in March.
I'm not completely satisfied with my B+W skills yet so if you have any critiques, comments or suggestions for improvement I'd appreciate it!

Self portraits? What lens used?

Well executed set of photos, I really like the ones with the figure in, gives them a surreal and slightly disturbing feel!

The place looks suitably spooky...why do these hospitals look so eerie??

Great work, Steve

Looks like the day room where "One Flew..." was filmed. Can almost seem MacMurphy and Nurse Ratchett.

to digitalpins: thank you!

to faidoi: no, I'm not in any of these shots, I was fortunate to have a model this time :) I'm using my Nikkor 28-70 f/3.5-4.5D (which still hasn't been added to the system, must send a note again)

to formerlee: thank you! yes, I love the spooky feel of these abandoned buildings.

I guess it would be scary to be there yourself.

Actually there was a movie filmed there. The hospital scenes for Michael Douglas' Don't Say a Word were shot at the site.

I personally like the blue room shot most. But they are all very good. Very eerie feeling. I would not want to be there after dark!

mos def. there's a history of murder there which makes you think twice about going alone.
