author unknown...

So I finally found a day to blow the dust of the camera and get out there and find some new material. I headed once again to Queen Street West as I was trying to find a frame shop that I knew was there, but because it was closed I decided to spend more time taking photos. I headed into the back alley's which are full of colour, new and old. I found this little 'clip' on the side of an old garage, and thought it was striking, and of course makes one stop and think about the author....but no matter what thoughts I create, or images of the author my brain creates, the fact is the author will remain.......unknown.

Colour Block


This shot is from last weeks walk on Queen West. I decided to venture down a back alley behind all the stores, and discovered the hub for urban textures. What attracted me to this little piece, was that despite all the different patterns, textures, and variations in colour, there was still an element of structure, or separation of parts.

It puts me in mind of a Rubics cube, and for some reason the 80's.
