Photographs

Eleven photographs and deliberately very little text

I wrote nine hundred words about this and deleted all of them. The photographs are of a demolition, and describing them was making them smaller.

What they show

The mill building over the four days of its demolition, from the same position, at about the same time each morning.

Why so little text

Because the sequence explains itself and the words I wrote were mostly about how I felt, which is not what anybody needs.

The captions

Date and time only. Anything more was steering the response, which seemed the wrong thing to do with something like this.
