Small town back alleys often have bits of character hidden from plain view. I found a few gems on a recent visit to Lawrenceville, GA. Lighting was flat, but I still dig the textures, colors, and lines. I’ve been here many times, and it continually evolves as businesses come and go.
Sheltering in place has lifted, and small businesses have begun slowly opening. Yet still, there is an abundance of caution being taken here in Georgia. I took a recent rural motorcycle ride and stopped in Monroe, a small town rich with historical character. There was a buzz with about 1/2 of downtown businesses open, but many still had doors closed.
I love photographing architecture, and each of these 3 downtown spaces caught my eye while window peeking. Each has its own character, and the sunny light’s metaphorical return of a brighter day was too fitting.
