This is such a great location. It would be awesome to see this on a really rainy night with just one light in one of those upstairs windows

Thanks Mark. I appreciate that. I have to admit that based on the scoring thread I thought I had a chance at top 10 at least, but it wasn't to be. It did finish up as my third highest image though so I'm very happy about that, and of course a 6+ image is always a good thing. I'll take the top 20 and I do consider this a success. Especially with all the nice comments! :)

BTW, the missing pillar and the open sign were also two of my main and favorite reasons for taking the shot. The irony was too good to pass up.

I was going back through these and I have to say I also thought this one would have placed higher. A perfect capture for the challenge and a well executed shot. I love the missing pillar on a building called The Pillar and the OPEN sign on the railing. Nice job.

Like: The building, the find, the title, the b&w.
Dislike: Nothing actually

It's a very cute building, I wonder what it was used for.

Oh that is so great. Is the building tilted or is the whole image tilted to the left a bit.
