Your images reminded me of one of mine ( completely unrelated, other than it is in a doorway ) I shot 14 years ago one morning on my way to work on a bicycle. As I just looked at it, I realized that 14 years later, I know better how to correct some of its defects ( if they are defects ) and maybe make it more pleasing to my eye - I haved learned a little in the way of editing in the last 14 years. But then I wasn't sure I really did like it better, Hah! I removed some leaves in the foreground that I think are distracting but I'm really not sure I like it better - cleaner, but maybe the grunge look was better -
a mill town wander
Warmth earlier this week drew me back to Lawrence for a walk, again in the North Canal Historic District.
A mill building, with canal reflection:
Vines growing on the building:
I found this set of what appears to be emergency exit stairs on another building. Too bad there isn't a way to get to the ground since the last section is rusted and missing rungs.
I found the juxtaposition of these signs to be interesting, a warning about air pollution (to truckers) and a hand-drawn sign for an art & social justice organization:
Loved this painted utility box sitting in front of an old mill building:
Have a lovely Thanksgiving Denise.
A nice walk, I especially like your last two images, I have a thing for signs, as you know.
I needed a walk this afternoon and while my first choice was a walk in the woods the trails are a mess now, muddy with some remaining ice. That didn't really appeal to me so I headed back to Lawrence to see if I could find some interesting things to photograph.
I'm always drawn to murals...
I found some rust and ivy on the remnants of a building in Lawrence Heritage State Park.
And a sign of the season, a splash of red accompanied by thorns!
