River in Black and White - a photo on Flickriver

            There are still some structural remains of some of the buildings from the old Ames estate along the Halifax River in what is now known as Ames Park. There is a chimney just to the right of this spot, which seems strange being so close to the river. There was perhaps more land mass years ago that had been eroded with time, and the seawalls went up to preserve what they could. This particular spot always has a very nostalgic, and melancholy feel to me, one of great beauty, but loss. The scene screamed out to be monochrome, and I listened. I think it was pretty with the blue hour colors, but more effective and dramatic this way.

I will be taking a few days off from commenting so I can get some photos from my archives edited.
