These photographs explore the quiet tension between abandonment and everyday life. Rather than documenting the architecture itself, I was drawn to the subtle traces of human presence—objects left behind, temporary interventions, worn surfaces, and spaces where past and present quietly overlap.
Photographed with a Fujifilm GFX100 II and an adapted SMC Pentax 67 105mm f/2.4. The character of this classic medium-format lens felt like a natural match for the atmosphere I wanted to convey: quiet, textured, and unhurried.
A local hybrid seed maker in Keosauqua, IA. This is that part of Iowa called "Lapland". So called because a little flap of SE Iowa corn country 'laps' over NE Missouri.
old and new.
the varsity theater of lawrence closed in the late 80's but the sign remains! how cool is that? urban outfitters moved into the space and as you see, their sign isn't holding up as well.
Red sign
This is the logo of a popular brewery. (It could almost be the coat of arms for many towns in Scotland!)
I liked the contrast with the sky, and the signs of wear and tear in this image.
P1013572 Taken at: Eglinton Street, Irvine, Scotland
Strictly this should be painted on a wall but my definition is more flexible.
Loos a bit odd as I decided, not, to run a roll through twice and this was about the only recoverable image out of 72, gutted is the word but there you go that's film.
Travelers from around the world have been bringing signposts from their hometowns to the Sign Post Forest since 1942 and continue to do so today.
The tradition began during the Alaska Highway Project in 1942, when U.S. soldier Carl K. Lindley spent time in Watson Lake recovering from an injury. A commanding officer asked him to repair and erect the directional signposts, and while completing the job, he added a sign that indicated the direction and mileage to his hometown of Danville, Illinois. Others followed suit, and the trend caught on. In 1990, a couple from Ohio added the 10,000th sign in the Signpost Forest. Today, there are over 77,000 signs in the Forest, and the number grows each year as visitors contribute signs and continue the tradition. The Town of Watson Lake maintains the site, adding more sign posts as they fill up. www.yukoninfo.com/watson-lake-signpost-forest/

This one used to be on an exterior glass wall in the SMS mall in Tórshavn.
I honestly do not know what it means.
(The cross had a slightly different red in the original photo. I did not see that in the original sign, so I changed it in the photo. But the color difference could mean that the cross is a late addition to the sign.)
The sign was glued on a glass wall in a mall. So, ignoring the symbols, a very material meaning is "This is a glass wall. Please do not crash through."
Maybe it uses people of different color and gender to communicate that the sign is not about sex or race. If so, the message did not immediately reach me.
Sign.

My great-grandfather was one of the Polish settlers that helped to build this church in the early 1900's.
Here is a link to the church before it burned down: www.flickr.com/photos/31155442@N03/44972935571/in/album-7...
The church had a new roof.
Sadly this church burned on July 8, 2021 as shown in this link: www.flickr.com/photos/31155442@N03/51299577818/

A sampling of the wares for sale at the new annex at Aurora Mills Architectural Salvage. I rather liked the sign. The annex provides display space for larger items which could not be displayed in the cramped original mill building. I was told there was explanatory information nearby about this being a bar promotion from San Diego to attract sailors from nearby Naval bases.
