EXPLORED!
Sorry I've been absent so long! I have returned to Flickr!
True Blue- University at Buffalo's wild out and crazy fan club! Woop woop, lets go Bulls! Haha, I really can't wait for the first football game of the year! Gonna be crazzzy.
Anyway, it rained this day. I love rain. Sometimes it makes me sad, sometimes it makes me glad but whatever it makes me feel, I'm glad it rained.
Broken window = result of me playing lacrosse in my room a bunch of years ago =P
I could not decide on which of these to use so you get to see them all because I am too tired to have an editorial eye.
A little walk around to take photos of an all time favorite “Door Through Time” here in Homestead in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. It was very hot and very muggy so I wasn’t out for too long. We found some very interesting things to run our eye-bulbs over in just a city block though.

Shopworn, despondent
sometimes seeking modest grace
not yet demise, birth
Although there is no trick photography here, I find myself still quite influenced by my brief time with Brooke. I found myself seeing new possibilities for this shot as I started work on it. Colors can transform, textures can offer new interpretations.
Broken Windows in the Hospital Ward of the abandoned WWII Army Air Corps base in Wendover, Tooele County, Utah. This is the base where the Atomic Bomb used in WWll was assembled and the crew of the Enola Gay practiced dropping the bomb before going to Tinian.

An abandoned building at Mansfield Training school, the stench of mold & mildew waifed through the shadows & air- truly gives you the willies.
Mansfield Training School:
"It was active from 1863 to 1993; was initially founded to segregate clients who were mentally retarded, epileptic, or deemed mentally aberrant from the rest of the society.
Patients & staff were moved through a series of underground tunnels that connected building to building.
The Mansfield Training School was a merging of two institutions "to provide for the care, custody, education and employment of mental defective (feeble minded) and epileptic persons."
pre-1915.., name changed from: "Ct Colony for Epileptics" to "CT School for Imbeciles" to "Connecticut Training School for Feeble minded"
1917.. merged with the Connecticut Colony for Epileptics at Mansfield, renamed the Mansfield Training School and Hospital.
1959.. administratively, Mansfield is transferred to the new Office of Mental Retardation in the Dept. of Health
1975... administratively, Mansfield is transferred to the new Dept. of Mental Retardation
1993... Mansfield Training School closes."
The facilities were old and the quality of care was questioned by family members of residents in a 1978 lawsuit, CARC v. Thorne that would eventually result in the closing of the school in 1993.
--->> In the early 1990s the defendants in the lawsuit inappropriately placed "Do Not Resuscitate Orders" in patients' files and withheld CPR.
One patient, Gladys Burr who was placed in this facility in the 1930s only to be found to have IQ scores that climbed, a high school diploma and completion of a short term business class. The doctors ignored all the signs she was placed there incorrectly, finally after 40 years, she was released from the hospital she was transferred to when Mansfield closed. Imagine 40 years .... what could have been.
Some buildings were so dilapidated by this time that they were knocked down, other buildings were transferred to the use of other institutions such as the University of Connecticut and still others were abandoned.
From what I looked up on this building along with the name Appelholm I think it was a former bakery owned by Gunnar Appelholm. 1228 Broadway, Rockford Illinois books.google.com/books?id=GBpEAQAAMAAJ&pg=PA981&l...
Something beautiful about damage isn't there.
Within the flaws is magnificent detail.
Pattern and structure.
The actions of a vandal are gold dust to a photographer.
