What a find! No two matching doors...or angles for that matter. Looks like Picasso designed it.

A great old structure. I hope they're still in business.

A fine range of tones in this sharp, detailed photo. I think it's good that there are no people or cars in the shot. Very effective as is!

I like this because it has four eyes and one giant teeth-showing mouth. I also like the fact the handicap sign is way out in the front, away from the entrance... shoulnd't it be close to the entrance? Nice shot.

Excellent B/W capture, the white and dark contrasts are captivating in this image. Great shot with interesting lines and patterns.

you find such unusual places - like this one - that prow front is unusual construction for a garage - as if the builder was trying to use every bit of space they could within the confines of the lot and building codes.
with the image i like how the space you've given before the building works with that big wall.

A parking space for disabled where there is nobody. Useful;) Nice find again!

I see sort of a cartoon/anime like quality to the building --the left side is something like a ship's prow with a face complete with eyes, nose, and mouth. The front is like two different faces with skewed mouths. These three face, the play of light and shadow, and the scale and shape of the building, bring it all to life.

@Twelvebit: i appreciate the comment. there was something about this building that kept me going back to it over the few hours we spent there. i think it's interesting - our tendency to see faces in things. i often see them in other people's photos, but not usually in mine.

Is there another side of Kansas where poeple live? In the meantime I'm a bit confused …
