It was certainly a house with character and an interesting history. You captured all that and much more in this shot, Clifford. Well done.

Clifford Dupuis

Thank you Heather for your kind comments

Yves Langlois

Another expressive and meaningful capture Clifford. I am so glad you have that wonderful talent to find and beautyfuly capture those reminders of our past. How come the photo itself look like an old one. It is slowly sinking in history to reminds us about what made us what we are. This is more than a shot, it is a document.

Again thank you so much Yves for your observations, they are most appreciated

Jane LeBlanc

A beauty! Sharp, with texture, contrast, and colour. It evokes a longing for things past.

Thank you Dennis and it sure does make one ponder on the doings about in earlier times
