Description
During a trip downtown to our historical district where the buildings were built in the late 1800's to early 1900's, I came upon this old building with exposed brick through the plaster. I looked and the exposed brick looked like a fish to me, an angel fish shape, but many others have the same shape. The wild vines only added to the look of an ocean bed with flowing sea plants. I hope you enjoy this image, for me it was a find and a joy to shoot.
This is city, urban photography. One thing that fascinates me about cities is the differences in the feel and sites that you can witness from area to area. Within a block or two you can move from a business district or commercial zone to a gritty, run down industrial zone or a trendy inner city residential or shopping area. Urban landscapes don't always include people directly but speak about the way we live (both good and bad). It can be very powerful to look for the evidence of people in a landscape and to feature this in your shots. In doing so you add layers of interest and make your photos more dynamic.
