Description
In 1973, I worked for a newspaper near the Brushy Mountain State Penitentiary (as it was called then). The prison was closed for several years during this time, so I was granted free run of the grounds. I took this series of 5 photos on this occasion.
It was a very lonely place, except for a pet the inmates had kept inside the grounds. The deer was called Geronimo and was very friendly to humans. Geronimo almost scared me out of my wits on the pitcher's mound of the ball field when he poked my arm from behind!
I have retouched these photos in an attempt to make them presentable. I took the original shots with a 35mm film camera and developed them myself. The years have not been kind to the originals, but I scanned them and worked some Photoshop magic on them.
I think they may mean something to someone, and wanted to post them here for posterity. Hope you enjoy them.
