This image is really simple, and to me that's the beauty of it. Someone took the time to build that firehydrant, to paint it, to stucco those walls, and to make the scuff marks on the concrete around it. Although it's a thing--the firehydrant--it's almost as though it's a living thing, constantly changing and getting beaten up by the New York City elements. Maybe I'm looking too far into it, or maybe I just like the image. It's my blog, and I'm entitled to an opinion.
