The Hub Cap City store on San Carlos Street in San Jose, California.

The Hub Cap City has been a landmark of sorts on old San Carlos Street west of downtown San Jose for many years. I think it is easy to see why… :-)

Front Yard After Rain

Black and white photograph of an urban home and front yard after rain, San Jose, California.

Continuing with the “urban landscape” theme – and there are quite a few more of these in the pipeline – this is the front of an older home in a San Jose neighborhood, photographed in the early evening after rain had just cleared.

Steps, Handrail, Mailbox, Door. San Jose, California. December 26, 2008. © Copyright G Dan Mitchell – all rights reserved.

Steps, handrail, mailbox, door, and wall in a light industrial building in downtown San Jose, California.

I found this doorway on a side street in a light industrial area of downtown San Jose. I like the combination of all sorts of angles – perspective lines and the line of the handrail – and the contrast between the cold tone cement of the entry way and the warmly lighted interior of the building.

Yes, it is another “urban landscape” photograph.

Roll-up industrial loading dock garage door with the words “will call” with column, sidewalk, leaves, and afternoon light – San Jose, California.

This minimalist scene was also photographed on my December 26 urban walk to and around parts of downtown San Jose with my son. The light on this shaded loading dock garage door is reflected from tall apartment buildings in full sun on the opposite side of the street.
