Description

I love this photo for several reasons . . . . the combination of past and present . .. the vintage look of the buildings on the wharf and the skyscrapers in the background representing the ever changing times we live in. The splash of the green trees just adds that little bit of panache to the photo and the people on the wharf actually look like they are painted in. It does sort of have a painterly effect . . . it was a glorious day.

...and this is a glorious picture, Carolyn. I do love the juxtaposition of the old and the new and the colors are timeless also. #1275944
