The Michael Lam Collection's Blog

On some photo-walks you just never know what you’ll come away with.  We were walking around the area near Parliament Buildings and Big Market (Stabroek Market), when we noticed this building.

It was aging, had a nice muted colour (due to faded paint by the harsh sun), and the paint was peeling.  If only I had caught someone leaning on the building!  But I still think it’s a nice shot, even without the person leaning on it

  Hi Michael
  I agree, the right person leaning on building the right way will add to the photo. However, I like this photo. It opens up my imagination of what it must have been like some time in the past
  Regards
  Cecil

    Thanks Cecil,
    I agree, there’s so much left to the imagination

  Would have been a skilled person to be able to lean on it as there is a drain directly below But I agree with you, this is pure paint peeling porn
