An excellent abstract piece, simple yet strong in graphical terms.

A shaft of sunlight paints the wall. Tremendous appeal, yet simple. A fave Grant!

How simple, just a few lines and shapes...light and shadow.
I like how you made something plain and real into art.

A fine pattern and excellent contrast control. I like the wide range of tones you've captured in this shot.

Your ability to find beauty in what most would find mundane is a gift. I've learned a lot just looking at your pictures.

I always like capturing the light at just the right spot. Sometimes it's so fleeting I miss a capture...especially this time of year.

@sherri: the sun sets fast these days. i looked out my window at work ten minutes ago and liked the light. walked around with my rolleiflex outside - one exposure left. by the time i came inside and reloaded it was too late.
Gary from Cochise County, United States
You took something so simple and made it complex. This is wonderful.

A plain wooden wall, but beautiful under the right angle and time. Where are the tools :)
25 Nov 2008 10:25pm
@Howard F.: :-) if this were my garage, you wouldn't be able to see the wall through the junk! this is really more of a car port, at an apartment complex - just happened to pass on a walk.
Rachael from Heber Springs, United States
You've displayed good lines, light & shadow in this photograph.

This is such a wonderful simplicity! I really like the light in a diagonal contrasting with the straight horizontal lines. Beautiful work!

Nice use of light and shadow. Reminds me of the kind of garage I haven't seen since I was a kid.
