Peter Lippmann’s ‘Paradise Parking’ is a series of photographs of vintage abandoned automobiles that have been overtaken by the surrounding foliage. The images offer a poetic look at the relationship between the creations of man and mother nature.

Disaster struck while passing the Canary Island of Fuerteventura and a strong storm beached the ship and broke her in two. Today you can still see the bow of the ship sitting on the beach and rusting away. (Source)

Photos taken from the Life archives of the Worcester State Hospital (Asylum) in August of 1949. These were taken by Herbert Gehr.

Once known as the Bloomingdale Asylum, it first opened in 1833, but due to complications revolving around overcrowding, a new hospital was constructed in the Kirkbride plan fashion.

A fascinating note concerning this hospital, is that Sigmund Freud visited it on his only trip to America in 1909.
