Downtown Kansas City Lumbar Cushion

In Kansas City, Missouri, six lane Main Street stretches out from the bottom right corner of the black and white photograph towards the misty skyscraper horizon in the distance. Tall black street lights line both sides of the wet multi-lane thoroughfare; one street light rises prominently from the middle of the bottom dividing the lower half of the frame. A dark sedan, below and left of centre, drives perpendicular to the lanes of traffic creating a moment of intrigue in the cityscape. 35 mm, black & white photograph. Copyright © 2004 Claire E.
