Water Work's Doors

Posted by Slackwater - Don (Spokane, United States) on 22 January 2012 in Documentary & Street.

The Water Works Building of yesterday had doors and windows on the far side. These door impressed me with their weathered look and the color they had retained. I thought they had a beautiful, if subdued colorcast.

Good evening Don,
Good luck and health for the New Year 2012, my friend. Also for your entire family, including friends and animals. The greetings come late, but I have not forgotten you. Please check the e-mails.
I share your opinion on this subject. The snow in the foreground is an interesting addition to the overall view. I like your picture very much. In between, I look at your blog and the other participants.
Dear greetings from Christel, Detlev and Ranger

The soft, gentle colors are wonderful; is the yellow-green a collection of pollen?
I love the big, old hinges, and of course the slanted board work!
