wow -- i am loving the tension formed by the 2 dimensionality of the brick wall and then the intriguing area of mirror reflection... parallel dimensions here! beautiful work!

Sometimes your images are so unpredictable. There it is unfurling and then, surprise, the reflection slowly reveals itself.

Nice. To me the reflection is what "makes" this photo. Nicely seen.

Strong static image, horizontal and verticle elements bond the image. Wonderful detail of the brick wall, even the bricked up windows. But the door creates a foreboding option.

@Observing: thanks mike. i wish i could remember what was written on that sign on the door. it was a bit odd i think.

Striking composition, forbidding look. There be monsters here.

@Stovepipe: or ghosts - this whole area is deserted on a sunday, my favorite day for shooting.

Mysterious- there are two window contours on sides of the door. Perhaps this is a movie theater once?!?

@Howard F.: possible, but unlikely. i'm sure this building has seen many uses, but the area has always been, i think, pretty industrial.

You always have something rather unique going on here...for me it's the contrast of the strong line going across the building, and the dream happening in the pubble :)
