51st and Warrington by HHS! contender Jeffrey Stockbridge

It's 4:39 in the morning and I just returned home from work. All I want to do is sink into my warm covers. But first, I want to briefly share a photograph with you.

Jeffrey Stockbridge is a 24-year-old photographer based in Philadelphia. He writes:

As a photographer I am compelled to make photographs that reveal what is ordinarily hidden. I am attracted to the elusive and mysterious nature of areas that are outcast from the rest of society. This desire has brought me to many economically depressed neighborhoods in Philadelphia. The houses I photograph have aged. They have been deserted and left to decompose, yet there remains a lingering memory of a past life. With furnishings still intact and personal belongings scattered about, it is as if the inhabitants simply disappeared. The ready-made scenarios I discover inside the houses I photograph are tranquil, yet unsettling.

One more day to enter, y'all. 'Nighty 'night.
