A vulture! Wow, how fitting is that?

Now this is beautiful! Even in decrepitude, the scale, shape, design holds beauty and you have captured it so perfectly, the lighting, the colors, the composition.

Dropped ceilings... they are something that always stands out as not belonging, clashing, cheesy, a necessary evil but unworthy of architecture.

I get a sinking feeling when I see a scene like this because something inside of me says, 'this needs to be set right!' and of course it is beyond possible.

I'm so grateful that you share these photos and your remembrances, Mr. Motts. I am awed by the beauty of your photos in a way I find hard to describe. It's like getting a glimpse into a sacred place. It gives me a different perspective of time and place. I've always loved old buildings and would love to do what you've done if I was younger.
