I have noticed a lot of the members on this board shoot digital, well I do not but I would like to share anyway.

More of my images can be seen at http://groundgivesway.photium.com

Its still in the works and is lacking a great deal of content.

The exact name of this location must be kept quiet for obvious reasons but the shots are from a lesser known New England asylum.

Camera body-Canon elan 7
Lens- EF 50mm compact macro
No artificial light. No flashes.

Amazing shots. Great detail and they create such curiosity! I love pictures of unused asylums, hospitals etc and these are spectacular.
Anymore to share?

Excellent job. I checked out your site and was VERY impressed! May I ask a question? Do you know what was in the large amber bottle with the hose in the women's ward gallery? Was it ether or what? Also, the light was shining just right on the wheelchair and the chair beside the vent was eerie- as if someone was sitting there listening in to another conversation...

Ryan, that is some really nice work. Excellent color and composition.

By the way, did you not notice that this forum's name is Canon Digital Photography Forum?

Keep sharing, whatever you shoot with.

Im not really sure what it was inside that particular bottle but I know there were various other containers with bile and other boddily fluids/ organs.

And thanks to everyone else.

I have a lot of other sets from various places I have yet to put up on my site. Its definitely a work in progress. But keep checking for updates. I do lots of traveling.
