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

Vanishing Venice
We have been coming out to Los Angeles since 2005, and it is amazing that in Venice alone, so many businesses have disappeared, for one reason or another. This is Lincoln Fabrics, my favorite fabric store. I have bought material here for photographic backdrops, and for making laptop sleeves and other projects that I forget. It was a funky warehouse kind of place, but fun to go searching in. I was so surprised to see that it closed back in October. I love the colors of blue in this, with the darker blue the same color as the sky. It was tough to pick this wide-angle view, because there are some interesting close-ups of strange mannequins in the abandoned display windows, wearing really weird clothing - you can see one in the lower right corner of the photo.
