The dusty passenger side window of an old Ford F1 panel truck. The lower left of the window has been shattered by bullet, allowing moisture into the abandoned vehicle, which has frozen over, leaving small ice bubbles along the fracture lines. A farm field can be seen through the windshield and driver's side window.
Target practice?

A window casts weird reflections of the street; the photographer's reflection is lost in the shadows.
Every so often I'm reminded of one of the very first lessons we took from The Wire. "Life just be that way, I guess."

A black-and-white photograph of two trashcans reflected in a window. In the background are various architectural structures.
Her: What are you doing now?
Me: Taking a photo of trashcans reflected in the window.
Her: ...patient sigh...

A black-and-white photograph of winter-bare bushes silhouetted against a building by a patch of sunlight.
Derek Mahon is right; the sun rises in spite of everything.

I was taken by the hard geometric shapes of the big box store and the irregular, snaggy, organic shapes of the bushes and tree.
Outside a big box store, a contradiction in shape and form.

A black-and-white photograph of a sploosh of white paint above a square patch of white paint on a brick wall. The shadow of a streetlamp can be seen on one side of the frame.

Frost on a window, in black-and-white.
Well done, Frost. Delicate, fragile, ephemeral...yes, job well done.

A random bit of sunlight got all weird in an alleyway, illuminating what I assume is some newly replaced aluminum ventilation ductwork.
The sexiest alleyway ventilation ductwork ever (assuming that's what it is...all I know is that the sunlight made it pretty).

White railings on a brutalist concrete structure. A stairway leading down to a men's toilet. Some wooden benches.
A subset of pleasing lines and shapes, with occasional winter light, can make even a men's toilet in a 1950s brutalist building look good.

A photograph of an urban setting in which sunlight and shadow get weird an interesting.

A woman presses a button to stop traffic and allow her to cross the street. She is dwarfed by the surrounding buildings.
Just a pleasing arrangement of shapes.

A man in a checkered shirt and blue jeans surveys the setting of a street fair before the crowds arrive. On either side of him are the backsides of booths.
Sometimes it's more interesting behind the scenes.

A high contrast black-and-white photograph of rain on a deck, reflecting the legs of deck chairs and railings.
Dark, rainy morning. Feels like it's raining all over the world.

Some orange flex-posts reflected in a window.
It was almost cool in the shade.

Two windows in a red brick wall. One window has a large heart shape displayed. Both windows have flowerboxes.
My heart's in the icehouse...

Some coneflowers growing in an alleyway.
Larking about in alleys again.

A red door in a brick building on a street with a steep incline.
You walk by a red door and you can hear a piano and you wonder if it's a recording because would somebody that good at the piano live behind that door?

Two yellow bollards protecting grey water meters, a blue dumpster, a dark turquoise fire escape.
Two veteran bollards at their post.

A photograph of a building taken from an alleyway. The balance is all wrong; the chimney, the windows, the decorative stars...it's all just wrong.
"What're you looking at?"
"That building."
"What about it?"
"The balance."
"The balance?"
"It's just...wrong."

A black-and-white photograph of a set of stairways in a parking ramp. A few bollards stand by.
Stairs, with optional bollard heroics.

A random patch of sunlight that found its way into a dimly-lit alley, illuminating part of a window in a brick wall.
Another photo-dithering moment. I'm larking about in an alley & there's a random patch of light. My 1st thought: Take the photo. 2nd thought: Why? Not that interesting. 3rd thought: Why not?

The service entrance to a small pub/bistro. Some yellow milk crates are stacked by the door. The image of a small but obviously irritated fish is painted on the side of barrier hiding a dumpster.
Seems like every new pub/diner/restaurant follows the same [Adjective Animal] nomenclature. Guess what this one is called.

A photograph taken by a bored man while sitting in his car as it goes through the car wash.
You know how it is. You're sitting in the car wash, nothing to do, but you have a camera, so...

A shattered window in a brick building seen in an alleyway. The broken glass seems to be in the shape of a bird's head.
Larking about in an alley, I saw a shattered window in the shape of a bird. Didn't I?

The deconstruction of an older building in order to replace it with a new building.
