Re: SV: Another Side of Detroit
Thanks Jens. I shot it for my friends who live on that lake. Since it's somewhat of a cliche, I hadn't intended to post it on the web. But I figured what the heck, it may be devoid of an idea but at least it's easy on the eyes. Paul On Oct 18, 2004, at 1:22 AM, Jens Bladt wrote: A beautiful, classic sunset. Very well done.

Re: SV: Another Side of Detroit
First time posting, long time lurking. It's nice to pictures of Detroit and her suburbs that aren't in the vein of 'Look at the ruins of what was once a great city! Cool, no?'. Plus, it's a nice sunset. -George Paul Stenquist wrote: Thanks Jens. I shot it for my friends who live on that lake. Since it's somewhat of a cliche, I hadn't intended to post it on the web.

It always amazes me that so many stark urban areas are so close to such beauty. I was in Hamilton, Ontario (Canada's Steeltown) the other day. It has a huge natural harbour. Near the mouth of that harbour is two steel mills, spewing smoke, with heaps of crap all around the place, huge rusted freighters docked nearby. It looks like a horrendous nightmare scene. Yet, go past the mills and the docs, and the inner harbour is beautiful, verdant and pristine. It appears untouched by humans. I wouldn't swim in the water, though. vbg Anyway, lovely photo, Paul. Sunsets may be cliches, but if they are, a beautiful one is still beautiful! g thanks, frank -- Sharpness is a bourgeois concept. -Henri Cartier-Bresson
