Found Photo of the Day


I picked this photo up a couple of weeks ago at an estate sale. Despite being a little out of focus, it's a fantastic find. I love the triangular steel frame - what is it for? There doesn't appear to be any gate into it and I can't tell what it is overlooking...It is pretty peculiar. It reminds me of modernist abstractions like this one by Giuseppe Capogrossi:


Giuseppe Capogrossi, "The Storm", Oil on Canvas, 109x95.7 cm, 1933

Both of these images are wonderful-I have often collected funny old family shots because it makes me so sad to think they aren't being treasured by someone...plus they're usually just aesthetically delightful.
