Great Picture. reminds of times when I've been working in my workshop.

This image was so evocative - so many thoughts came to mind:

my office forgotten after I'm dead... the tediousness of my daily grind - is it worth it? ? (yes)

a ghost town after a long drought or the aftermath of an earthquake or September 11th

what were they working on in that office?

The photo is even the color of old leather! Great work!

Amazing diversity. Loved the walls, single hanging lamp and chair, and the plaster faces add to the mystery and the photos complexity. That was some used office! Wonderful Photo. Best of luck.

Extremely interesting photograph. Pulls you in with all the dusty details. My title for your photo: "Out To Lunch, Back in 5"

Again, great photograph
