Color in the Least Likely Place

Corner, Archdale Parking Garage, Charleston, SC  © Doug Hickok


Sometimes nice color is found in the least likely places, like the top floor of this parking garage in Charleston.

    Yeah, I agree with you. This often happens that we found something interesting in the ordinary places or in ordinary situations and I like your today geometric choice.

    The garage's corner makes a fine graphic image with excellent colors. I like the contrast between walls and sky too. Well done.

    Your abstract photos are absolutely otherworldly.

    Wow - that's so purple it hurts the eyes. I like how the slightly irregular shadow gives the solid pillar an almost ragged look.

    Yes there is... it takes someone with a good eye (read you!) to spot it and share with us!

    I love shooting parking garages--I'm often amazed by the unexpectedly interesting nooks and crannies. You've found a gem here Doug--I love the great geometrics, shadows and color.

    Probably a cheap tin of paint - but little did the painter realise what a fine piece of minimalist art he was making for your ever observant eyes.
