I love the steps...very inviting : (

reminds me of a quaker round house or grain building

er, I think the porches were enclosed later with the brick. Once upona they were probably open to the air. Make sense? : )

yes, yes, Lynne 10 of 10

...hard to believe there were many more structures attached left and right and behind this...still harder to believe they were all destroyed and this was all that was spared. Yet true.

Mr. motts, this is aptly titled-I checked out Kirkbridebuildings.com and saw that THIS is incredibly and truely, ' what is left. ' Beautiful angle and subtle lighting to enhance what remains.
Thanks :-}

My comment will be dated herein!....Looking at this magnificent photo: I think total loss...from water... from structural collapse? No matter...it is utter horror and finality....Did it take decades to amass this chaos or was it just one unbelievable week (in New Orleans?) that created this scene of total devastation?
Mr. Motts, I do believe your fantastically lit black & white has captured a timeless sadness that can be felt or construed by anyone from any period... You've captured a universal feeling of finality that can be felt through the eye of any beholder :'{

Lynne: I hadn't seen that article (did read the one about Mississippi River, though.)
Thank you for your thoughtfulness in posting the site. by the way, the Beignets are one of a kind;'-)

Yes, Well, we all have the same pix.
I'm a NOLA fan and want the best, now.
Hey, Ever have Beignets at Cafe Du Monde?

:-) looks like my bedroom in Fairfield County, CT
Snicker,:
Ah, with all my love.
No One will get that!
Anyway, What's going on with this room. Was the bed really there, or is this staged . My bedroom was blue with yellow, blue pink and green curtains....G'night

Whoa, Mr. Motts: this was a room?? Looks like the end of a hallway! Do tell what is with the window within a window? Era's are different : So what is your take on this?

Lynne, Why Nola? Ya'll have a story?

Lynne: Argh! There are places that still use this mechanism?

thanks Mr. Motts...beautiful!

thanks Lynne, I tried the highlighting and also my screen lighting -didn't work. Maybe Mr. Motts will oblige. I have an old Mac in my basement but I won't go down there ;-)
