    Although I don't comment very often, I love all of your work Sharon. This one though, is really special for me. I see something eery in this photo, like walking through a town after the nuclear explosion, maybe being the last person on earth (eg " I am Legend" or "The World, the Flesh & The Devil") Keep inspiring !!

    I really like this one Sharon. I could imagine that etched in metal, or stamped in foil. I agree with Travis this conveys some sort of loneliness.

    Not much sign of hope there. To me that's a bleak, post-industrial landscape.

    Whe I saw the title, I thought, "Ah, she's been to Glasgow". But I suppose there must be a few Hope Streets scattered about the place.

    Thanks guys....!

    It is kind of bleak. My first job on leaving school was in the large building, It is actually Falkirk Library.

    Sharon,

    The blandness of the sky actually adds to the feeling of 'hopelessness'. Certainly one of your better ones.

    I trust the "hopelessness" didn't reflect on your first job.
