St mary's asylum has always seemed like the ultimate asylum to me and after hearing of it's possible demise to the demolition crews, it was really a now or never type situation.
The history has been covered before, and there's a few other recent threads which look at other aspects of the site which are worth a look at! :thumb
Explored initially with Hmltnangel, Cuban bloodhound, Celo, Sandman and Theoss and later on with Silverstealth, Tumbles and Sinnerman :) . It was brilliant weather, which always makes a massive difference for both photos and just the general atmosphere. I could really do with another three days to explore this place properly. 1 day to find the rest of my way around, a day for getting better photos and also, just a day to take the place in without the camera! Unfortunately, Aberdeen is a just a wee bit too much out of the road to make regular trips!
but anyways, cheers lads for a great day :thumb

In the kitchens. the stain on the door looked like the shadow of a person when i first glanced at it from a distance!
