Striking contrast between the absence of color, or hope as I see it, and one teeny speck of life in the bell tower. It is a rusty breath of a vital sign, but it looks like a sign none-the-less. Is there a future for this structure or is to be forgotten forever? What a poignant statement this picture is Ms. Y. Bravo!!

Glad to see you shot this image. I have past this buiding numerous times and contemplated shooting it for years. I think the thing I find magical about it is the round upper window, the bell and the brick work. It appears to be a school or church. Hard to see while the leaves are on the trees. Thanks for sharing this with the rest of us. --Shawn
