The Beauty of Decay
"I thought," he wrote, "about the dead whom I had never known . . . . I love above all the sight of vegetation resting upon old ruins; this embrace of nature, coming swiftly to bury the work of man the moment his hand is no longer there to defend it, fills me with deep and ample joy."
Gustave Flaubert

Hearing only my footstep echo off the graffiti-covered walls and the sound of my camera shutter, I carefully sidestep the toxic puddles, trying to capture the light that enters through the broken windows. I can only imagine what once was and the sounds and stories of the people who worked here. -David J Gallipoli
Windows
“I discovered windows one afternoon and after that, nothing was ever the same.”
― Anne Spollen, The Shape of Water
