Great building -- it's magnificent in it's ordinariness. Nice geometry, too, with the rectangular bricks, rectangular windows and door, and squarish shape. That stovepipe coming out of the room bisects the picture. Too bad you couldn't get some bokeh to kick in and fuzz out those buildings in the back -- this one deserves to have the whole scene to itself. How would it be in b&w?

That's something else for a funeral parlor. Going to a funeral is bad enough, but this looks absolutely dreadful.

Feels cold and abandoned, as a funeral parlor must to those who only visit it when they have to.

That's a funeral palor? Yikes! Excellent editing to make an unremarkable building interesting!

That building has absolutely no redeeming features - so why can't I stop looking at it? There is something stark and confrontational about it, and in it's own way it is quite intriguing.
