I immediately thought of Helena's photo pairs this when I saw tis scene in Birmingham. Where major demolition work is underway they have screened with scaffolding and hoarding that gives a mirror like finish and looks sculpture like. Look close and you can see cars and street scenes....
And close up, beautiful ripples and distortions. Sometimes even the ugly can be made beautiful.
I tried to include this a couple of weeks ago as part of my Birmingham posts but unfortunately I had technology problems. But perhaps the timing is more fitting since Helena's own PAIRS post this week is about demolition. You can read about it here.
