Urban Decay.

NYC.  I went with my friends for a weekend in NYC on the 18th and 19th of February 2011. Urban Decay was a project that scared me because I had no means of approaching it correctly.  I decided to use my pictures that I have just recently taken in New York City because I feel like they depict my version of urban decay.  Urban decay to me is when something that was once beautiful, has its own definition of beautiful now.  I discovered the beauty in graffiti  and how simple changes to something can actually enhance its natural look.  New York is a diverse place, and we got lost on our way to Soho, so we ended up in an area of urban decay.
