Thanks, guys.
Pentax', most of the time and with what I shoot, colour only works in the extreme sense, for me. Only when its vitally important do I use it. Cheers.

Textures are really interesting - an unusual shot!
Photography is putting one’s head, one’s eye, and one’s heart on the same axis. HCB

It is nicely textured, as Ken says - good shot Paul

An absolute cracker, it looks like a Rodchenko painting.

Very well spotted. As Gartmore said it could be taken for a painting.

Thanks very much, guys.
I find these tardy layers to be quite a rare thing in the city. They're definately worth photographing if you can find 'em 'cos they're transient, too.
The remains of unsuccessfully steam-cleaned walls with new layers of graffiti applied and so forth, provide good hunting grounds for abstracts like this, I guess.
Karma', the side of the van has some perspective illusion going on, I don't see it as abstract though. Cheers for showing.

Nice work Pauly.
If you can't say something nice about Pentax, you won't say anything at all.
Apparently.
