“If you prefer to live in a places with flowers, you are more likely to find yourself in a place with lots of food sources…. So a brain that takes pleasure in looking at flowers is a brain that’s going to soak up ecologically useful information, and have a survival advantage over brains that just like to look at rocks or dirt or sand or sky. Photography is a way of pressing that pleasure button.“

This shiny, glossy red against the rust made for an interesting combination. Red always catches my eye, but this red in particular made me want to not only photograph it but reach out and touch it too.

I love rust, texture, peeling paint and general urban decay. The undulating curves in this piece make it all the more appealing to me.
“To me, photography is an art of observation. It’s about finding something interesting in an ordinary place… I’ve found it has little to do with the things you see and everything to do with the way you see them.” Elliott Erwitt

I was shooting with a group one night in the Fountain Square area of Indianapolis and came upon this reflection in a plate glass window. I loved the juxtiposition of the old diner sign vs. the new ATM sign.
