I"m not usually a fan of work representing decay and destruction, but some of these images are striking and compelling. I've seen photos of the ruin of Detroit in the US, but those photos, while compelling, are bleak and colorless.

Here, these photos show decay, but these colors of the past remaining behind -- shining through the decay if you will, and especially with the light of late afternoon -- make this work breathtaking and magical.

Quality of Light always makes for remarkable work, but here it accentuates and makes the decay almost new, as if it were created to be like this. Marvelous.
