This one is a personal favorite of the photographer. The photograph was taken at Glenn Echo Park in Glen Echo, Maryland. The building had recently been painted, and my guess is that the windows were not protected before they spray painted. Someone had obviously made a crude attempt to remove the paint after some of it had dried. I loved the way the afternoon sun was backlighting the smears on the windows. The red background color was provided by the mansard roof of another building.

Glen Echo Park has quite a varied history, going back to 1891. It now belongs to the National Park Service, and is used as an Arts and Cultural Center. I won’t go into it all here, but I will encourage you to look it up yourself if you aren’t familiar with the place.
