these walls could tell stories

This was the wall of a house left standing when the house was demolished. As I was photographing it, a kid walked past and stuck his hand up, obligingly. Naturally, I snapped. I saturated, rotated and voila...

like the life form has been burned onto the wall for all time.. like a fossil.. like the semi-permanent outline of a leaf - the dye saturating the concrete for a few hours ..
All reminders that we were here ... please don't forget us..

The peeling wall is amazing ..

A reminder of this house's memories. Ration books, radiogrammes and kids playing in short trousers. The hand on the right reminds us.
