Description: Maybe it wasn't just one thing I saw that day but a series of one things stretched out in a rather minimalistic empty area. I still don't quite know why this scene appealed so much to me. The rust stain from some long gone item leaves a numeral one..the cloud,the tree, the platform... the shapes and shadows..or the suggestion of an abandoned building that stood here long ago. Perhaps its best not to know and just enjoy those moments when an otherwise empty space fills ones heart with joy and somehow what one sees is not an empty lot but rather a work of unintentional art.

I love your descriptive interpretation Nina - and you're right - a scene like this can leave an impact and make a statement.

i love the concept - it's like a carbon imprint; a ghost image of what was......

Yes, it seemed like a footprint of the past. Thanks so much

I love your description here, I relate completely! I sometimes think it is how an archeologist must feel finding "clues" of life that has moved on...

Yes, and I had no idea what had existed in this spot in the past.... only what I could see and guess had occured there
