Lost to Time Acrylic Print

So sad, and yet it appeals to the eye of the artist...wonderful textures and composition! L&F

Thanks Jim!

Great capture! FV

Thank you Yuri! I do know his fabulous work!

I see the sad beauty Sandra. You should check out the work of Andrew Moore, who has made part of a career out of photographing Detroit. http://www.andrewlmoore.com/photography/detroit/

Thank ou Ann! :-)

Such a tribute to the skilled crafts folk of the past, Sandra. I am enchanted with this series, and I, too, am glad that you recorded these relics before their demise. like/f

Thanks Michael! :-)

Wonderful save Sandra lvf.

I don't know what the origin of my fascination with old, crumbling buildings is, but it's not to be denied. This is a classic example ... what was certainly someone's dear pride and joy blasted to ruin. What a tragedy. I'm with you on the photographing of these beauties before it's too late. And you've done a magnificent job. We've had a little cabin up in PA for about 10 years now, and when we first got there I was fascinated by old buildings, barns mostly, but also a whole commercial section on main street of an old town. I snapped away ... now ... all gone. Amazing .. and like you .. so glad I've got my little snaps as reminders of what was. l/f

Thanks KK! As many times that I go to Detroit it still blows my mind to see so much of the city in decay, just miles and miles of it but then, some small areas arent so bad.

What a pity that this once fine home fell into such disrepair./ Great photo, Sandy! :) kk
