Love the sinister feel to the pics! I read that Joliet Prison was also the place where the first season of Prison Break was filmed. The Joliet limestone has a hardness from 3 to 4 on the Mohs scale. Meaning the stone can be scratched by a copper penny (hardness 3.5) or a steel nail (hardness 5.5). Not the best material to build a prison from.Picture 1 is the old quarry building for the now-closed Joliet Prison, where the opening scenes of the Blues Brothers were filmed. The first inmates of the prison worked at this quarry mining the stone that built the very place they would be housed. Picture 2 is the admin and main building of the prison.

I wasn't aware of the hardness. Thank you, that's very cool.Love the sinister feel to the pics! I read that Joliet Prison was also the place where the first season of Prison Break was filmed.

Beautiful composition and great use of negative space. You captured some really good detail in the reflection as well which isn't easy.
I like this one very much, I feel drawn to reflections because they remind me of the multidimensional quantum world we are living in. The photo is beautifully balanced, made more interesting by the light and a beautiful haze above the water. Beyond the water, inside the building, the world ends, life in the prison at its peak.I was looking for this photo. This is the NE Corner of the prison, reflecting in the pool where the stone was mined.
