POTD: Se7en

I have a bit of a fascination with jails and prisons. The culture, lore, legends, and architecture interest me. I have always been particularly fascinated with Seven Locks, not only because of its incredible name but also the round room-with-a-view architecture. Seems a little cruel to include the constant reminder of freedom in the form of passing cars, but perhaps some inmates find it soothing. To take this, I actually stopped on I-270. I imagine passers-by thought I looked none too reputable.

    I’am surprized that you didn’t get a closer shot courteousy of Montgomery County’s finest after making an unnecessary stop on a busy highway.
    Guards at the jail im amazed didn’t apprehend you for possibly helping to break someone out! You were all to close in an unusual place.
    Seems to me that driving right up to the jail would have been a brighter idea.
    Thats just my view.
