I've been trying to get a good picture of this building for over a year. This isn't it.
I stumbled over this site last summer with my Vivitar Ultra Wide & Slim in hand, but the shots I got didn't feel right. I revisited it in November with my last roll of Kodachrome. On this trip, a couple dogs attacked me as I was shooting it. Fortunately the owner called them off in time, and I walked away with only a hole in my sweater. (This is in a bad neighborhood if that's not obvious. That says "Crips" in the lower left window.) Anyway, I didn't like the slides any better than what I got from my Viv.
This is my first attempt at a portrait orientation. The powerlines and street lines here don't bother me. In fact I like how they surround the place. But now I'm thinking a square frame will be most effective. And I'm also thinking that the clinical precision of digital isn't going to do the place justice. Yes -- I'm thinking Holga now. And another trip. Maybe in the fall...
