I can't help thinking that this looks rather like a stage set! It is a fabulous shot. V

I have seen this building here and was amazed by the harmonic mix of the old and new. Now, I can have a closer look and I still find it fascinating. V

I had to look twice, and then got the scale by comparing to the size of the truck. That front archway is very large.

What an interesting place. It almost looks like a movie studio set. Great work. V.

Congrats on your camels making it on Pbase, as a story. I thought that was terrific. I not surprised, in the least bit. You do produce some great images. Great job, Helen.
