Urban Steel

As night began to settle in on a hot fourth of July in Austin, TX, I ventured out in search of the perfect location to capture fireworks. While cycling through the downtown streets, my attention was abruptly drawn to a gleaming piece of chrome that caught the sunlight from beyond a fence. To my astonishment, what initially appeared as a solitary piece of chrome unfolded into an entire warehouse filled with an array of metals, each reflecting and shimmering with one another and the surrounding environment.

In this image, I sought to capture the essence of the raw industrialized beauty found within scraps of aged, heavy steel.
