Well its good to see we Americans haven't let ours fall into such a state of disrepair as those Brits have. LOL
Nice shot Austin

AND it's made out of concrete, which everyone knows is superior to stone...

Hello Michael,



Thanks. Its after ... the steel framing is to keep the facade standing during the rebuilding. Just down the road is a smaller shop front kept up with shipping containers and wooden framing.

I've just returned from a short trip to France. It's the first time I've travelled by airplane with my LF gear - which was an expirience all in it self!
Anyways, I took this picture in Lourdes

Really great picture.
I've always wondered why americans continue to this day to build mostly frail residential buildings using wood structures and planks. 90% of american homes today are not that different but for added isolation foam, drywalls, vynil windows and modern comfort. This is in stark contrast with European countries that have always built almost exclusively solid rock or brick residential houses that last for centuries. It has always made me think that an american thinks anything that outlast his lifetime or is strong enough to go to future generations is wasted on them. Not satisfied with not passing any archtectural patrimony (or relatively very little) to future generation they actually do worse by taking a loan against future generation. The national deficit is a plundering of future generations. Not only leaving nothing to them but taking from them before they come to be.

Eskinazi: Beautiful! I like the precision and sharpness, along with the great feel for light. The skylights are great.

Thanks Peter! I shot it at f/32, and the negative turned out really sharp indeed.
