Distorted View - a photo on Flickriver

Distorted View

            Back to the Charlestown complex in Utica, where some exquisite winter-afternoon light is falling on window frames left exquisitely twisted by the huge fire in 2020. 

My previous photo here was three months earlier, shot while a litter of Labrador retrievers was being conceived in another part of upstate New York

As I was shooting this photo, those pups were 32 days old -- waddling around, peeing on the carpet and tormenting the mama dog who was sooo ready for her first litter to be weaned. 

I hadn’t met them yet, but I’m sure they were a lot cuter than this old factory.
