Just a few blocks away from our uptight upscale suburban development, I came across this. Most of my neighbors would call it a monstrosity; I think it's beautiful and would rather live next door to it than all the polished facades in my neighborhood.

A gentle look at decay

Breave in the decay

I was walking by this shop that specializes in European cars when I spotted this old beat up Rolls Royce sitting out back. My idea was to show a contrast of opulence and poverty.

I thought the image looked best in B&W with a little bit of contrast to make the chrome pop and the chain of the fence to show up better. I also cropped this a bit as well.

A fashion illustration for a dress based on the theme of decay.

CR 13 between Shottsviille and Bexar in Marion County, Alabama. I don't have any idea of construction but underneath the pine clapboard are dove tailed solid log walls.

Yeah, another test roll. This time wide zoom lens to replace my poor sticky Super Albinar 28mm. It's not much bigger than 50mm lens and makes easier focusing - do it at 50 and throw into 25. I really miss DOF scale on barrel, will need to figure myself.

This is a photo shoot from a decaying factory in Detroit MI.

Another Christmas tree in Pontypool, by the mosaic mural paying homage to Pontypool’s once famous japanning industry. Sadly, this attractive mural is decaying and crumbling.

Taken while traveling on one of Virginia's back roads. I took a detour by accident and

discovered this.

Loved the textures of the decay on this sculpture on the church grounds in Cooks Creek, Manitoba.

I decided to trek through my old hard drive and pull out a couple of photos. I know they aren't terribly beautiful, but they all seemed sort of special to me.

Looking past a decaying house towards the wind turbines of Causeymire Wind Farm, one of Caithness's first big wind farms, built nearly ten years ago.
