 This scene is from a former asylum, now flanked by a State Correctional Facility. The building is beautiful, a tangible reminder of how society cared for it's less fortunate members. After admission to this facility, the majority of the patients were to spend the remainder of their lives here.

Great, but the image is too small! (Bumping it up a point anyway.)

If you hadn't explained what this was I might have had a hard time figuring it out. It's an interesting series of disjointed objects, and I've seen things like this work, though in this case I'm not so sure it does.

I think the lighting is too "normal" if you see what I mean. Rather than being some sort of surreal / weird / abstract scene, the lighting / composition has just left it being a bunch of unrelated objects.
