Where do I take you?

Most of the areas where the houses had to be torn down two years

(because of Hurricane Ivan's distruction two years ago in Florida)

only have remains like this. Walkways that do not get walked on

anymore or docs that have no more walkways on them. This is all that

is left of a house that is gone.

Very nice B&W with good composition. I hope you are taken me in a nice place. Just let me care of the broken piece. Friendly Michael.

Good composition. Cliff

Yes Michael I am drawn to the broken things... maybe because I want to be fixed, hmmm maybe you are right.

 

Funy I see the beauty in this walkway that is why I took the picture and today when going through my pictures I couldn't believe I had not uploaded it before.

Great black and white. Can almost feel the distruction by looking at this walkway with the missing boards and the grass and weeds poking up through them. Pray Florida has a quiet hurricane season for 2007.

Perfect composition, very good B&W tones! Best regards!

I really felt this had a simple quality with a great story behind it.

 

This has made me felt that I might want to really invest in a "real camera" and take some B&W pictures on film.

A very good shot Micki. Good contrast, lightning, and composition. Best regards, Torfinn.

Very nice photo, Micki! Wonderful composition. Best regards, Ivana :-))

It is a good shot, Micki. I like it. I'd have probably come away with at least a dozen shots. I do have a different take on it, though. My eyes keep jumping from the boardwalk to the bright sand, to the tree and grasses, in an almost continuous motion, instead of concentrating on the boardwalk. Just a different approach. Well done.

THAT is a great idea! I will play with it before I print it! I was going to give this to one of the local DINERS that I like to go to eat. Maybe get a free meal out of it (YEAH). I like your idea and so now I will play with it some more.

 

THIS is why I like PN!! :)

 

THANK YOU!!

 

Nice peaceful image. I also love the sound of these boardwalks when you walk on them. Great mood. I like Dougs tighter crop but this one showing lots of space on each side is also pleasing. Nice job!

Sorry for the slow commenting, once again! I`ve been very busy during the last days. Also thank you for your several comments to my photos!

 

The story behind this one is really touching! I cannot even understand what would it feel like to loose the home because of the hurricane... Awful. I like the desolate mood in your image. The hopeless boardwalk to nowhere. Very effective!
