The image is a black-and-white photograph titled "f/s Cancellations - CROSSING," taken in 1975 and printed in 1985 by the photographer Thomas Barrow.

The scene captures an outdoor urban environment featuring a metallic guardrail situated in the foreground, positioned diagonally across the frame from left to right. This guardrail extends towards a grassy patch of land with a dirt surface. Two thick black wires or cables intersect in front of the guardrail, crossing each other and creating an "X" shape. One of the cables has a curly element attached to it, adding texture and complexity to the image.

In the background, a bridge is visible along with several streetlights and buildings. The urban landscape continues with a mix of trees, poles, and various architectural structures, suggesting a small town or suburban setting. The lighting indicates it may be either early morning or late afternoon, casting long shadows and providing stark contrasts between light and dark areas in the photograph.

The overall composition has a dynamic quality due to the intersecting lines created by the cables and guardrail, guiding the viewer’s eyes across the image. The photograph captures a seemingly mundane yet complex interaction of urban elements.

This black and white image captures a scene with a focus on a damaged guardrail at the foreground. The guardrail appears to be made of metal beams and is visibly bent and twisted towards the ground, suggesting it was subjected to a significant impact. A chain is attached to the guardrail, stretching across the frame and adding to the sense of disarray.

In the background, an overpass with a vehicle on it can be seen, along with street lamps and other urban infrastructure elements, including what appears to be a concrete barrier and a body of water or waterway beneath the overpass. The location seems to be an urban area with various industrial or municipal structures.

There is handwriting on the bottom border of the photograph. It includes a title or description, "Eh's Cancellation - Crossing," a signature, and dates, "n.1975" and "p.1985," which likely indicate the negative was made in 1975 and the print in 1985. The photograph has a documentary feel, capturing a moment of urban decay or the aftermath of an accident.

The image is a black-and-white photograph titled "54% Cancellations - Crossing" by Thomas Barrow, dated 1975. It appears to be part of a series, as indicated by the "n.1975" and "B.1985" notations, suggesting it might be the 19th image in a 1975 series and possibly revisited or reprinted in 1985.

The photograph depicts a road crossing guardrail that has been altered or manipulated. The guardrail is bound with thick ropes or cables, which are tied in a crisscross pattern, seemingly to prevent passage. The ropes are secured to the guardrail and extend outward, creating a barrier. The scene is set in an outdoor area with a grassy patch in the foreground and a paved road or pathway in the background. There are several streetlights and utility poles visible, along with some buildings and trees in the distance.

The photograph captures a sense of restriction or obstruction, emphasizing the barriers created by the ropes on the guardrail. The title "54% Cancellations - Crossing" might suggest a thematic focus on limitations, barriers, or the concept of cancellation in the context of crossing or movement.

This black-and-white photograph, titled "f/4/5 Cancellations - CROSSING" by Thomas F. Banow, appears to have been taken in 1985. It depicts an urban scene with strong visual contrasts and a focus on infrastructure elements. In the foreground, a corrugated metal guardrail is prominently featured, partially obscured by a zigzag wire, creating a sense of tension and disruption. The wire appears to be loosely strung or possibly damaged, adding an element of decay or neglect to the scene.

The background includes a concrete bridge with vertical railings, leading the viewer's eye towards the horizon. The bridge is situated over a body of water, which is partially visible but mostly in shadow. The surrounding area includes some buildings, trees, and streetlights, suggesting an industrial or semi-urban setting. The lighting in the photograph is dramatic, with strong shadows and highlights, emphasizing the texture and form of the objects in the scene.

The overall composition of the image, with its focus on man-made structures and the interplay of light and shadow, creates a sense of isolation and perhaps even desolation. The title "Cancellations - CROSSING" might suggest themes of interruption or the breaking of continuity, which is visually reinforced by the broken wire and the fragmented appearance of the guardrail.
