St. Johns Asylum - June 2012

[Headflux]

Great explore in the company with Jen, Urban X, Priority7 and UE-OMJ.. This is quite a late report but only just managed to get my photos sorted out. I'm sure most people know the history on this place as its been done numerous times, so I'll just let you enjoy my photos.

All of the photos apart from the outside shots were taken with my trusty iPhone 4S + Olloclip lens kit.

I love the 'honey-comb' roofing on some of the corridor shots, it really is quite unique. The main highlight of the place is probably the staircase, although my shots of that didn't come out particularly well due to the low level of light at the time.

I hope to revisit this place again soon.. its a lovely building but it really is in a sad state of decay.

Enjoy!

Thanks for looking!..

I love the contrast between nature and man made dereliction.

Thank you for the interesting shots. I love that honeycomb-effect ceiling too; my guess is that it was a clever acoustic solution to the problem of noise reverberation in a place which needed relative tranquility.
Great ! Thanks again.

Nicely done man, I still need to get my arse to this place!!

Great photos. I really dislike that honeycomb ceiling. It would freak me if I was a resident there.
