Description
The Coral Reef is a motel in a prime location on the beach at St. Pete Beach, Florida. The doors are closed with concrete blocks and the windows are boarded up. I asked around the neighborhood and everyone I spoke with said it has been that way for years. No one knew why. I'm sure there is a simplistic answer that isn't very sexy, but I love a mystery. Beyond that question, the minimalist quality of this image is what attracted me in the first place. I like that it is almost featureless while being a wall filled with things.

Hi William - this is a great image for me; I see it as a self-reflection on the nature of photography, questioning (by blocking) our assumption that photography is simply a transparent window on the world. So there's a challenge to the viewer by concealing rather than revealing, and as you say, a great feeling of mystery. (v,f)
William Fields replied:
Thanks very much Andy. I'm glad this piece spoke to you. I'm aware that it isn't for everyone and I'm very glad that there are people like you who get it.

William, it did produce a great minimalist composition. What I like most about it, is the three-dimentionality created by your processing. There is a cushiony quality to this, almost like a fabric quilt which is interesting. Of course, it's anyone's guess what happened to the business - that's where your viewer's imagination can be inventive. voted
William Fields replied:
Cheri, thanks very much. I suspect that this one will have limited appeal and then mainly to other artists. Appreciate you support.
