Description
Darkness, darkness, be my pillow,
Take my hand, and let me sleep.
In the coolness of your shadow,
In the silence, the silence of your deep.
Darkness, darkness, be my blanket,
Cover me with the endless night
From the song Darkness, Darkness by Jesse Colin Young
It is a hidden away area that is somewhat forgotten. The brown residue on the walls and ceiling is, I believe, badly deteriorated acoustic spray. The subject matter is just plain ugly. I'm drawn to that at times. I am sure there must be some deep rooted psychological explanation for why I find beauty in imperfection. I have always been attracted to a car with a rough paint job; a dog with three legs that can hold its own; a pretty girl with a space between her teeth or a largish nose. I think those kinds of things add character and set the subject apart. In the end, I find things and people who are flawed in some way as much more appealing and interesting than the ideals of beauty that our society seems to cherish.

William, Great shot of with such a great capture of the details of an old building, I love what Phyllis Denton said and that is, "Old Buildings have so much to say" and that is so true. You have done a remarkable job at capturing the vintage era of this building and its insides and what made it run. Excellent job, voted, Tweet, FB and Google+ promoted
