Description

I rose before dawn to get to the coal pier site in Philadelphia. It's located in an empty industrial area, behind construction, and through a field of weeds and trash. As the sun rises light floods through the pillars and touches the paintings left by graffiti artists, taggers, and paint ball enthusiasts. It's a colorful place, but still lonely - and always feels a bit dangerous.

This area is part of the old coal pier that is no longer used. Coal was stored in the silo's and then transported out to the pier via conveyor belt. It's a favored site for graffitti artists, fishermen and now photographers.

I hope you will consider acquiring one of my photographs for your personal enjoyment or as a gift.
