Classic

We came across this neighborhood one evening on our way back home from a supermarket, and I was so intrigued by a gate I wanted to go back and see more. It’s not as upscale a neighborhood as the one I photographed last year, but I always find it interesting to see how people live here.

PBase seems to be responding more quickly this morning after yesterday’s abysmal performance. I did write to them to complain, but never received even an acknowledgment of my email. Really makes me wonder who’s minding the store.

The view from the neighborhood, posted earlier:

This structure has so many terrific lines and details. The design is terrific and your capture fully does it justice. Superb clarity and lighting in this well planned capture Helen. Voted

a good mix of decorative form and a bit of simplicity

A classic bunker style, so to speak ! Almost gave up yesterday, but PBase seems as least this A.M. to be working OK. V

A completely different style

Definitely a completely different life-style from what I'm used to.
Thank you for all your interesting documentary work.
