Long ago walls had painted signs. Walker Evans told many stories with his sign photographs. His signs now tell us about history of those times. Some are still there like this one shot on B+W film. I’ve look and photographed this before never quite right. A while back the light looked perfect, but was moving fast. I pulled out my Nikon put on a Red 25 filter and shot this image. The Red filter adds contrast but also makes reds lighter with more separation in the varied tones of the red brick. Hence the image I wanted was there. enjoy pjc
