FGR/TRP: Streets of Gold - a photo on Flickriver

After I took this facedown shot, I considered it all day. The morning light dancing across the golden panels of the wall originally made the shot for me. But, as the day elapsed, elements in the image began to take on a much more symbolic tone.

The signs... You have to be what to enter? Yellow? 18? Baptist? Catholic? The azure sky reflected in the windows...... The small elements within the windows...... Could this image of a club of notorious repute be symbolic of someone's heaven? Perhaps it is. The camera can help you to see.
