I took this shot in Baltimore, Maryland. I absolutely love the beautiful brick buildings there. As a southern Californian, i am not used to seeing many brick architecture. I love the contrast between the the vibrant red bricks and the greyish brown mortar. minimal post processing was done.
Obverse of a Cannon Street brick.
The Cannon Street Brick Company operated from its central Hanley works during the last quarter of the nineteenth century and early twentieth century. It appears in trade directories for 1912 but not 1921.
