I thought I'd share one last set of my abandoned prison photos from Lorton, Virginia. If you'd like to see Parts 1 through 3, click HERE, HERE and HERE. I hope to go back again next fall and capture some more images. It was a lot of fun looking for different textures and perspectives...and the overgrowth of ivy and wildflowers throughout was very beautiful, too.

  1. I think all the textures of a decaying and rumbling structure give it such a sense of beauty. YOu've captured it wonderfully!

  3. So hauntingly beautiful. I love the two boarded up arched windows and the stairs leading to the rusty door. Great visit.
