I am not sure why they come across as sad, as if almost haunted by ghosts of memories, imprinted in the empty air.<br />The worst is by far seeing half demolished buildings, when one can see inside. These fill me with terror and avoid passing them.<br />Nevertheless, these images here carry a certain kind of melancholy, that is almost poetic.<br />Have a lovely Sunday.;)<br />xoxoZuzanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02137958790178864561noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6560071949400915555.post-90491391263949904542011-03-05T17:56:28.004-06:002011-03-05T17:56:28.004-06:00love the glass block!love the glass block!Betsy Brockhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06807795605763246015noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6560071949400915555.post-49704056569720289152011-03-05T15:36:57.738-06:002011-03-05T15:36:57.738-06:00I get anxious about buildings LIKE THIS that have ...I get anxious about buildings LIKE THIS that have such old time charm just DISAPPEARING in a dust cloud of demolition!
