Eastern State Penitentiary

[threeholerglory]

Mark, Justin and I decided to go on a spontaneous trip to the Eastern State Penitentiary in Philly yesterday...neat place to check out, and incredibly interesting at that. Here are the first round of shots (and probably the only round I have...hopefully Mark and Justin will contribute)...none of these are HDR, although a couple are composites to control tones.

Really nice work, Mike! I was down to Eastern State a year or two ago, really a neat place to shoot.

Mike that first shot is awesome! A true sense of feeling in that photo. Great work.

thanks for the compliments everyone! it's a really neat place to shoot but definitely be sure to splurge the $10 to be able to use a tripod, unless you like hand holding at 3200ISO for inside shots (or unless you have wickedly steady hands). They also have a seriously amazing haunted house in the fall that's done professionally....VERY highly recommended if you've never been!

Great stuff Mike! Maybe I will check it out when I head to Philly in September.

Thanks Steve, and I truly do recommend it! Added some star trails to this one just for poops and giggles....thoughts?
