Newark "raw beauty" (Pinhole Images)

Newark, New Jersey is a area which has been viewed as the center of industrial breakdown. It's landscapes consist of broken down factories, abandoned buildings, trash and graffiti. Some view this type of atmosphere negatively. I look at it as a "raw beauty." There is something about broken pipes, fire escapes and rusty bridges that truly captivates me. The pinhole camera's ability to simplify the image only adds to Newark's modesty.
