Life Force *

Holyoke, Massachusetts

Nature pulses with life even in the midst of urban decay. Sorry to start waxing philosophical, but I just couldn't submit another depressing photo. And believe me, I took a number of them this morning.

Well, the boards are part of a garage door...obviously abandoned and no longer being used as a garage. One of the neighbors came out as I was getting back into my car and looked at me oddly, probably wondering why anyone would want to take pictures of the neighborhood eyesore. I'm glad you like the picture. --Mary Anne

I'm not sure this suits the theme but it sure suits me! I really like the composition. I like the way the boards hide some of the plant . . . but, in the end, the weed kinda pops out. It's alive! Well done!
