MARCH MONOCHROMATIC CHALLENGE - Scavenger Hunt - "So Sad"

THIS OLD XIX-century BARGUE (once a floating water station) BURNED DOWN LAST NIGHT!!!
PROBABLY SOMEONE PUT THE FIRE ON IT ON PURPOSE, THERE IS AN INVESTIGATION GOING ON NOW.

Not sure if it's possible to save anything of it now.

Very sad to lose a piece of history. Wonderful photo though. V

Sad indeed that there would be those so uncaring as to destroy beauty and history.

That is terrible vandalism :-( Beautiful tones in this wonderful mono.

So sad, a great image in B&W though!!!

It was the guy with the camera. I´ve seen him last night in another image. To be serious, it´s a pity. It´s such a fine boat house.

It look like you and Matylda were hanging out together :-)

Janice Dunn		20-Mar-2012 08:06
That looks like it is a very old boat-house.

Ron Asp		20-Mar-2012 04:43

That is very sad. I hate to see such needless destruction. It was a fine old barge by the looks of it in this lovely photo.

Cindi Smith		20-Mar-2012 00:30
So sad to see it gone. What a lovely boat it was. I just hate that. Beautiful shot of it, though!

Very sad to see this! Humans can be so cruel some times!

Outstanding b/w! So glad you went and documented this site and so beautifully. V

That is sad, but great shot.

Karen Stuebing		19-Mar-2012 21:34
That is a shame and the fact that it may be arson makes it even worse. But this photo is a beautiful memory of it so now it can live forever. V.

Michel Duval		19-Mar-2012 21:06
So sad, perhaps. The talent of the photographer is to give beauty to sadness. V

Gerard Koehl		19-Mar-2012 21:05
Magnifique photo en noir et blanc. V

Sad indeed. To survive for so many years and then be destroyed by some act of vandalism is dreadful.

What a waste!
