Ellis Island
by
Bill Borne

Ellis Island, New York. Many, many people "opened up" a New part of their lives, when they immigrated here and went thru the Immigration process at Ellis Island. This building probably has the Richest History of any building in the US.

Bill ,I have heard so much about Ellis Island..Unbelievable that a whole immigration process was in fact processed in this place.. so much history passed thru this portal then....I therefore say..What a fabulous take on the theme!! Really Like the perspective of the grey choppy water..as if the viewer is approaching closer and closer... I can feel their change a'comin... Great thinking/and capture...irish_eye

Ellis Island was certainly an *opening* (opportunity) for many people to begin a new and improved way of life. Nice take on the theme and nice shot Bill. bottles
