A happy customer at the salvage warehouse...Binghamton, NY

Across the U.S., local governments are tearing down old, derelict

houses but not before groups of volunteers remove valuable

components--doors, windows, trim, mantels--for recycling to homeowners

restoring urban properties to their previous splendor. In the

Binghamton area, that group is called PAST--the Preservation

Association of the Southern Tier.

Yes!! Good movement, good perspective, good story. Bit of backlighting gives the scene more interest. A small thing may be the cropped foot, but in such a dynamic image, who cares?

Thank you, Arjen--I really appreciate your comment on this image. When I first saw the shot, I was a bit bothered by the clippped foot myself but, as you noticed, this was a fast-unfolding scene and I was truly fortunate to grab the capture at all. The image is a testament to Canon's glass (in this case, the 16-35 2.8L) and the 5D's ability to perform amazingly well at 1600 ISO. Thanks for stopping by. All the best...Bill
