Stone Bank with Effects!
Let’s face it. The Stone Bank is very photogenic. Has been for 112 years.
The play of light and clouds gives the stones a different look every single day of the year — so no matter how many pictures we shoot, we always see something new.
A couple of days ago, your Stone Bank Blogger and her b.f. spent some time at the bank, trying to catch its many shadows and colors on a sunny day.
The b.f. also discovered the “effects” button on his new camera and had some fun with it. (You know how it is. Give a man a button — and he’ll push it.) Anyway, these photos show off the Stone Bank in a new light, and we thought you’d like to see them.
Indeed, it was 112 years ago this month that work began on the Stone Bank. Think of all that has changed in the world over those 112 years. And here stands the Stone Bank looking smart, strong and youthful and giving us a glimpse of how things were done all those years ago.
If you are so disposed, send along a symbolic donation of $19.00 for the year 1900. Or $112 for the bank’s age. Or any and all numbers in between — or above.
We have work to do this year on the Stone Bank and need some donations to make that happen.
As always, thanks for reading the Stone Bank Blog.
