13th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Altered Images
Ivory Arches

My son wanted me to see this - a place that is hidden under an old concrete bridge in Jamestown N. This is a refuge for the tired and homeless, a place to hide - a place that holds hopes and dreams and protects them within its arches. Almost a sacred in beauty - yet its decaying nature depicts some hopelessness - despondence.
