The urban landscape, like any landscape, gets strange if it's visually compressed. This baroque scene is at the intersections of New York Avenue, H Street and 13th Street is Washington DC. I like the fact that the street light, looking like something that has survived the 1929 stock market crash, is the tallest thing in the picutre. Taller than the church steeple. Taller than any building around. Who says photos don't lie? They lie all the time!

Stumble It!
