Description
An eyesore of a building located in the otherwise charming (though somewhat touristy) town of Ashland in southern Oregon. This small building (which I think is a garage) has been in this condition ever since I've lived in this area, which is over 10 years...
Please zoom.

Nice job of honing in on the abstract beauty of that old workshop. It's looked like that since I moved to this valley in 1976. Good eye and good capture!

Far from eyesore! You have showed us it's beauty. This sort if neglect should only worry the owner.

Great capture of this old building. True it needs to be touched up a bit, but like most other detached buildings, it doesn't get the attention it deserves. I do like the abstract beauty

Belle composition et belles couleurs

A painter armed with a ton of sandpaper and scraping tools, that is. Marvelous shot of the wall with that awesome peeling paint. I love that stuff, especially for closeup photography.

nice shot, you made an eyesore beautiful in this photo.

I love it just as it is, although it may not stand quite as long with that amount of weathering. Still, it is beautiful!

in this 6-shot mini-session in your gallery today, I save this for the last because it's an arch Claude shot, in cropping and in all forms of pre/during/and post-work. The crop makes a decayed wall and window into a wonderful abstract piece. The peeling in the wood--mainly verticals---are contrasted beautifully with those dull flat surfaces in the window (or opening)---I say dull, but when we look closer, there's a lot of terrific soiling in there as well. The right-side box has wonderful discoloration and 'wash' across it. The dark inside the window is a necessary contrast to all this bright yellow. And the tree on the right is like a Japanese print-tree---it just comes in and leaves its delicate complex mark. A terrific active photo, with a serenity born of seeing this as pure presentation and therefore bereft of thoughts of "what a mess," and as a play of textures and morphing yellows, it's actually kind of vast...When you tackle these close ups of decayed facades, you present them nakedly and without flourish, and they are knockouts. Terrific: a claude piece to the core, and a wonderful example of how art can flourish in the most decayed places. 20 stars.
