A couple of weeks ago we were checking out the old Lorton Reformatory which is being converted to condos, yes, you read that right, condos. On the way out I captured this image of a turtle making the long slow climb back to the old prison site. In the background you can see the tops of some of the old prison buildings. Please see a second  photo below. Read More
Over a six-month period in 2012 I had the opportunity to photograph the old Lorton Reformatory in Lorton, Va., part of two photo club outings. The infamous prison which housed inmates from the District of Columbia but stood in Fairfax County in the Commonwealth of Virginia had a historical and controversial existence. Please see more text and more photos below. Please also drop back in tomorrow for Part II of this post, which will include more photos of Lorton and photos of how this historic prison is used today.
