[QUOTE="Jim McClain, post: 679674, member: 31047"] I never thought these iron cast access plates were all that interesting until I became an adult and visited a few different cities around the world. When I became interested in photography, I was living in the SF Bay Area and captured this with a Canon A1.

I guess I see a picture of just a cover as documentary style, even if the cover is artistic. I'm prob'ly wrong, since I'm certainly no critic with special powers of observation.
