Plywood, weeds, and peeling paint
Here’s another shot of the endangered train depot in Snyder.
Had this been an old book, rather than an old building, that peeled part would be called foxing*. I don’t know what it’s properly called on a building.

I like your broader view here. I would have focused on the peeling paint and plywood, not seeing the bigger picture.

I am a little embarrassed to admit that I didn’t even TAKE any closeups of that wall. What was I (not) thinking?!?

Lovely textures, and the plant is really nice too. And all combined with rectangles. Very nice!

I like the way the curves of the weeds offset all those rectangles. The only thing this needs, really, is some corrugated metal.
