red light district
Of course my eye was drawn to the only bit of color in the scene…even though what I’d gone over there to photograph was the remains of a building on the right side of the image. Now I can understand that the building-husk was just the bait to lure me in.

amber
Every window in this old church is boarded up except for these three. The amber glass was unexpected and the way it looked against the blue of the sky is why this is in color.
I appreciate that the only three amber windows were close enough together to get in one shot.
Historical Note: the June 2022 Google Street View image has a sign over the front door of the church that says “The Redeemer El Redentor.” Otherwise, it still looks the same.
