Nothing stays the same. Nice pallette.

Aged buildings like this are fascinating - makes the mind wonder who all has passed through those doors - like the framed composition and symmetrical feel of this!

Great shot of such an old building. I can't help but wonder who the chair is waiting for.

I like this picture: the composition is perfect with the empty chair waiting for no-one! Great colors too.
Have a nice day.

seems a shame to see a building like this. the chair out front is pretty cool.

Time has been hard on this one. Still beautiful, but in an entirely different way.

Great decay! Stark and impersonal, capturing the mood in an unique way. Excellent!

I'm happy too...:-)
another slogan: "the power of money destroys the beautiful things"
I explain: there were beautiful houses at Paulista Av but the strength of capitalism and its provision for destruction
contributed to the houses disappearance.
Then appeared tall buildings these I'm showing you all the time.

well...Lodz! Why abandoning of the beautiful things like that?
is so difficult for me understand why the governments behave like that...in complete disregard ...

but I would'nt like to talk about sad things. sorry!
Your artistic image is enough to me!
You are getting better, FS!

I love all the textures in this beauty of aging and loveliness. Age doesn't have to mean we are less beautiful.

I love the tones in this shot and I wish I lived back then.
