97 Nov 20 Comment Hello Matt,

Everyone has been very thorough in their suggestions. My feeling was the image was bottom heavy, so I did a pano crop of your image to see what it would look like and feel like. No other changes made to your submission. 		Nov 10th
97 Nov 20 Reply Hi Thorro,

I agree with your edit suggestion. I took 4 images of this scene and did a different edit direction for each to play with all the possible whites / darks / grey-scales that can exist in the image. I went with this one because I was very interested to hear and see other's views on how they would approach a similar image. In this one, I like the ephemeral nature of it and the almost "glass" like quality of the foliage, as if the trees are the prism, multiplying while also refracting the light.
As for the neighborhood, it is a marvelous opportunity. The place is on the beach and from what I gather is quite an old place. Many of the homes and buildings are traditional mudbrick.I believe that a few strong typhoons is what caused it to be condemned. There are still people's belongings left behind in homes and shops, calendars still hang on walls and faded tapestries still cling to the walls and ceilings. Feral cats and dogs have moved in, and as you can see, nature has reclaimed once open spaces. 		Nov 9th
