 Yes, this is in a hospital - snapped this & a few others while location scouting.

This did better than I expected - very thrilled by the impact the photo had on some of the voters. Thank you!

I like this for its stark contrast, as they head toward the light darkness creeps up from behind.

This is my favorite "In my time of dying" photo in this challenge, and there have been a few. Walking into the strong light, out of the clutter of this hallway... I like th interpretation a lot. Good contrast, silhouette is well defined and very good visual "punch".

Interesting lighting here, and it this looks like the interior of a hospital. Might have worked well as "In the Light" too.

The lighting doesn't really work for me. It's too dark in the hallway to makeout what it is a hallway of. I'm guessing you are implying going towards the light but I didn't get that for quite a while when looking at the photo.

Not really sure how this fits the title, but no marks off for your interpretation. It'd be cool if that were a hospital. Maybe it is, but it looks more like a school to me, although some kids feel like they are dying there. Love the high contrast, and sihouette. Nice job. 7
