Alley.

Walking around the neighbourhood the other day, through the alley to the Fiesta Farms, I stumbled across this tired-looking garage. I find that anything deteriorating like this makes for an easy shot: visually interesting, palettes in both colour and grey-scale are pleasing with good contrast, and photographs of deconstructed/deteriorated relics of society have been an accepted convention of fine art and beauty since the American Farm Securities Association hired a pack of incredibly talented photographers to document the Depression back in the `30s.
