Gee, with that kind of money back in 1954 you'd think they would have had enough left over to dismantle it. You know, in the spirit of "Leave only footprints." But then we all would have missed this marvelous photo. Excellent pov providing the fence in foreground, and great job bringing out such amazing detail in the floating dredger and its wonderful reflection. Great job on all of them, Denny. #8964086

I was going to comment on this last night, got side tracked. I like the way you framed this, the reflection is a bonus. Interesting equipment. Seen a lot of this kind of mining in the Ruby River area in Montana this spring but nothing like this was around to show how it was done just a lot of tailing's. #8965579
