This is an interesting place as a visitor, not much fun on a semi-permanent basis! There are some great photo opportunities on Alcatraz, but you have to be a little patient to find a gap in the crowds. B&W seems to work well in capturing this stark and dismal (yet fascinating) place - I selected the blue toning to enhance the feeling of cold misery that must have been felt by its unwilling occupants.

Hi Salvador, what I have learned in photographing church interiors seems to work quite well inside prisons - like heaven and hell compared! Cheers! RickDB

Great documentary shot of this very unappealing place. Good idea to have the blue tint as it emphasizes the dramatic effect...Regards
