 This composition creates a powerful sense of place by capturing structures that appear to rise directly out of the surrounding marshland. The wide framing brings together four distinct eras of coastal expansion in a single view: the early 1970s oceanfront high-rises in the distant background, the 1980s bay-facing island homes, the early 2000s bay-side development, and the modern construction of the 2020s anchoring the foreground.

Generally one would want to see the powerlines cloned but here... they kind of hold this together. And I really like the monochrome color choice. Good one.

You've captured the contrast, the old and the new. Love that its monochrome
