But I was there as a teen, and it also looked smaller in person. There are houses in my town that are this size, as private residences. Yesterday's big is now normal. Big is different today, which has somehow become even bigger. My Smugmug site

Here's another shot with folks by it for scale. Note the guard dressed in all-black standing in front of the window.  FS: Canon G1X Version 1 with B+W filters

Here's another shot with folks by it for scale. Note the guard dressed in all-black standing in front of the window. I'd never noticed the strange trim molding above the ground floor windows before. It alternates between a rounded and pointed top on the moldings. Intentional for sure, but I wonder if it has any other significance? Thank you, Pekka! I'm sure some members here might have imagined that POTN might begin winding down. But that doesn't make the news any less disappointing. So generous of you to allow us to go along for the ride. As a result you gave us a way to help each other become better photographers. But there's still so much more to learn.
