Prince Hall at Washington University in St. Louis is going to be torn down this year to make way for a new underground carpark. It was built 100 years ago, and it shows. I ventured inside while there were no classes in one of the rooms and looked out the window. The glass shows its age; it's rather imperfect. I liked the way it slightly swirled the view outside, and so was created today's picture of the day.

Clear as Glass

I suppose the same effect could be achieved in Photoshop with about five seconds' effort, but this isn't the photo-manipulation of the day.
