One of the things I love most about photography is looking beyond the surface. I am not sure if that is seeing with a photographer’s eye. Or just seeing what most people take for granted and walk right past. But it is seeing beauty in ordinary things; noticing angles, patterns, light and perspectives that most people may not see; and stopping to look at the details. This photograph embodies those concepts for me. It is relatively simple, possibly “just sticks” to most. But the patterns, the contrast of colors – gray against the blue tones, and even the overt ordinariness of it struck me.

Your site is great. I enjoyed your photos. I like today’s photo and the others from the phoenix building to the summer snow (awesome) an I liked your narrative. Thanks for your comments on my site about the photos from my photography tour to Vermillion Cliffs and Slot Canyons. I have many more coming up and the slot canyon photos are truly amazing. Also, I noticed on your site that you love Buenos Aires. We love that city also. We also have a travel photo site where we post photos each sunday and currently for the next couple of weeks we are featuring Buenos Aires so you might check it out since you like BA.
