Thank you Susan for being our hostess.
Once a Ford dealership existed on a vacant lot next to this building. I have passed by this empty space so many times walking, riding my bike, driving my car. I didn't see these windows at first. Me, the "woman of looking for details" missed this shot so often. Finally, I saw it. I thought okay I'll photograph it another day. One day went by. One month went by. One year went by. I can't remember how many years has passed since I procrastinated on documenting these windows. Finally, on this day I remembered and got in my car and drove to the spot and took these three images. I suppose I should have taken more photographs like maybe six, or eight or ten. At least I took more than one photograph. Why did I only take three shots? No clue.
I have been studying lines, shapes, textures. This photograph is replete with metal, wood, glass, shingles, shades, peeling paint, rectangles, squares, and triangles. In the future I am sure some new construction will hide this canvas perhaps even tear this building down. Change. It is what it is.
i love your attention to details. thanks for showing us.
ReplyDeleteI like all the different shots, very interesting pics!

Lovely architectural photography and so neat that you took them in b&w.
ReplyDeleteGreat shots of windows that are no longer used and left to ruin in the elements.
ReplyDeleteI've done that...gone past the same thing for years and thought about what a great picture it would make but forgetting to take that picture. I know you only got 3 but I like the 3 you got and now, even if they do tear it down someday, they'll always be here in your photos :) Happy Outdoor Wednesday!
ReplyDeleteCool pictures with a lot of details.
ReplyDeletethose are really great joyce.
ReplyDeletei love that you can see the fencing in that last one. what a great shot!
You really came up with an interesting and different post today. I love old buildings and houses, but would never thought of taking a window for sharing. Nice job.
ReplyDeleteI love old buildings. Great shots. Love the black & white.

These are wonderful images. It must make you feel good that you finally stopped and did what you have been wanting to do for so long. I should try and be more like you!
ReplyDeleteVery, very interesting. I've gone back and looked IN them three times already, as if I expect someone to be there.
ReplyDeleteI like that you see the art in common things like those windows.
ReplyDeleteIt is possible to find beauty everywhere and you have done it. Thanks for stopping by to see us at Atticmag. -- Jane F.
ReplyDeleteGreat shots! Thanks for sharing. I want to experiment with turning more of my pictures into black and white.
ReplyDeleteOh, the stories those windows could tell!
ReplyDeleteIt is so interesting. Thanks for the great photos (even if there are only three :)
