Here's a depressing Photoessay of my town.

I've heard it said that a picture is worth a thousand words.  Well, this Photoessay is the word "bleah" about 50,000 times.  Trust me, it's quite as bleak and depressing as it looks in a lot of these pictures.

Not quite.

I don't know, it didn't look all that depressing to me, at least for someone who doesn't mind winter. For a slice-of-life photo essay, it was quite well done, showing some of the good and some of the bad while generally not showing major attractions.

To be fair, the photographer didn't dwell too much in some of the shadier parts of town, and most northern cities tend to look pretty desolate in the winter.

I'd like to see a similar project done in the spring or summer. The brief flash of green that we see during the short warm(ish) season really transforms the city.
