Invitation to the Underdocks


PHOTOGRAPHER'S JOURNAL: So many times the underdocks have drawn my eye to where reflected pilings open another world, a place of shimmering darkness, passageways, snails, barnacles, ropes and chains that dip and drip beneath the gleaming harbor's surface. Night in the underdocks brings a different world, a place of silent iridescence. Whither this stairway while Bass Harbor sleeps, my last shot before leaving the herring dock?

Chicago! Not hardly. Thanks for stopping by.

I mean, there are some fancy appartments with garage fr boats, so that you arrive at home by the lake... ;))

Now i understand the allusion. However, this is as far from "fancy," as one can get.
