Description

Henderson is a town and is a swamp by it. You cross I-10 going by the town and the sign says "Atchafalaya basin". these old stumps been around aa long time. Cypress is a wood that do not roit much. The trees was cut down for the wood. I not sure when but was heard a long time ago. took this when moonrancher was here and we rented a boat for the day to ride around. I messed up and had a polarise fither on the len. It turn all my photos blue in color and took out the fog that was setting over the swamp. Was not a heavy fog but it look nice. Big building you see in background may be a place to eat and a boat place too. forgot the name of the place. lol but I know it good food there. They was rebuilding it for the big storms took out parts of the place thanks I know the pichure have a tild to it a little. I got a bad habit of shooting like this. I had a program that would straighten the photos up . but my .dll is bad and was moved

I thought it was ice in the swamps! But it was the filter that made it look this way. I actually like the tilt to the picture, don't know why though.

A ghostly reminder of our past, but then again you can stop progress ! As for the tilt, you can fix it in any paint program, just download one of those freebie ones ! ~Cheers~
