He...@ Jacob - It WAS hot and I had the dog with me. He was about to expire in the heat. I have wanted to shoot this particular stilt structure for some time but wanted a powerful sky of blue and lots of clouds. I think the color image is my favorite of the two, but the b/w is a bit different and I like it, too. I'm glad now that I shot it both ways and could see the results. (I KNOW that there must be some detail on this stilt building somewhere but so far I can't find out anything. There's a good story here. I think the dock was washed away and then they wouldn't allow it to be rebuilt...my guess.)Frankhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04998414080562162677noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5993828192820124200.post-31387350152716984882009-09-28T16:09:29.844-04:002009-09-28T16:09:29.844-04:00@ Hilda - Even stilts can't help when the wate...@ Hilda - Even stilts can't help when the water gets as high as it did in your beautiful city.
