A superb architectural shot. Including the foreground really works here. As grubby as this building is, as a formal photograph it invites so many questions about who uses it and how it came into such disrepair. Although an un-charming subject, this picture would look good blown up to 2 meters height and displayed in a gallery.

Good shot as usual.
there are so many things going on with this building to make it visually interesting...and the dreary day mixed with the blue colors creates a very cold feeling. i like.
Posted by Liz at February 26, 2010 11:43 AMI get the same 'cold' feeling when I look at it. I also get this weird, eerie feeling when I look at it too. Almost like I'm about to watch a suspense or horror movie, involving this house/apartment.

I enjoy the mismatched symmetry.
I also enjoy seeing things around where I live, that I think you would photograph. I live in the UK and had just got off at Hammersmith station, as the train pulled away it revealed a vivid green door in the wall, with two padlocks on it. One huge, but rusty and broken. The other this shiny, small Yale lock. It seemed ironic to me that that tiny lock was doing the job that the huge lock had failed to do.
