These two images represent different views of the same window in the Back-Bay section of Boston. Obviously it was painted black, but there was nice orange rust poking through. I should probably go back in my archives and see if there is another photo to provide a third All taken with the Olympus E-M1 Mk II and the 12-40/2.8
You’ve got to love the iPhone. This photo was just a grab when I was out in the rain in Boston. The exposure for such a tricky scene was just handled. There used to be another building on the left, but Photoshop’s magic Generative Fill eliminated it. I love the subtle colors, the contrast of old and new architecture, the moody sky.

So I take photos and never know if I’ll like them or not. This shot of the back of an old bus or truck I took at my NJ Auto Graveyard photo shoot in November 2022. Unfortunately, I forgot to take the wider photo which would tell me what the whole text is, but the top line is something mysterious, but the bottom says SAEES, as far as I can tell. I guess it’s some abbreviation, but I may never know. Probably came from somewhere in Southern NJ. I love the colors, making this a lovely pseudo-abstract. Lots of layers
