It may be work, it may be play, it may be near, it may be away. So here is the challenge - to shoot and post one photograph a day on this site. These photographs are a kind of diary of things I find interesting. I am also thinking that there will be days when I am unable to shoot, so on those infrequent occasions, I will post a photograph done on another day, but one that still feels important to me. - Ken Spencer

Not Long For This World, II
On the way to the Beacon Theater the other night, I was walking down Broadway and saw one of those plywood walls surrounding a site. You know the ones - they always say "Post no bills." So I was curious what was behind the walls. I saw some heavy timbers along the edge of the street, so I climbed up on them to gain some altitude and to get a better view. This is the best I could do. It appears that these buildings are about to be torn down. What is interesting is to see how decrepit the fronts of the buildings are. I almost wonder if there were false fronts on the stores that have now been removed. I do think that this photo has a spooky feel to it with the three illuminated windows higher up.
