Fire Escapes

These following pictures are a good example of my daily thought processes. Taking pictures even the ones I never share, is a release of all the ideas bouncing around in my head. I love the mono tones of the building and how the fire escape is one of my favorite colors -white. But then as I stood there of the tip of the street corner risking being nailed by a bus or bicycle (Kyle stood beside me, he would never happen, he's good for that), I twist and turned my camera until I capture the fire escapes in about ten different ways. Once home, I wish I had taken more. Is that crazy?

Vertical, the detail in the railing remind me of a wedding dress.

I was thinking Kyle vs. me as this shot was taken. If we were neighbors I'd be the one on the left, with curtains and not blinds and scrolling on the window grids. Kyle on the right, simple, masculine, sleek - that's hot hubby in a nut shell.

So pretty.

Do the last three picture look the same?

While the ladder was a focal point, I was actually attuned to the different details in each shot...

Two blocks down I see this in China Town.

It stopped me in my tracks to see how the sunlight hit the building before noon.
