The Silent Waiting
Sometimes when I look through dusty windows into vacated spaces, it looks like things were left behind. And usually, it looks like the tenants left in a bit of a hurry and maybe left some things that they’ll want later.
There’s something about this scene, though, that makes me feel like the items in the room were just moved in, and are waiting silently for the rest of the stuff to catch up.

I do like that fireplace, I don’t think it was just moved in, though. 🙂

It doesn’t look very moveable – you’re right about that! But there’s something about it that makes me think it’s not original to the building…

Looks perfect for a gallery to show your photographs. Lighting and all. Furniture suitable for a bar. Nothing more needed than that.

I’d probably need a LOT of booze to drawn in the crowds, so it does look like a good set up.

Thanks, Mark. I love looking into windows of vacant businesses. That’s not too creepy, is it?!

Not too creepy at all! I did a whole book project based on it a while back! Check it out: https://emptyspacesproject.wordpress.com/ 🙂
