A storm clears the Friendship and the nearby Pedrick House. This building is the original building that was built in 1770 in Salem and at some time moved to Marblehead. In 2003 a local historian noted that this was not a building orignally in Marblehead but a Salem building. The park service managed to get the building transferred to them and Salem and then a labor of love began as it was taken apart very methodically and brought to Salem. It was then piece by piece put back together and it sits much as it had in the 1700s.

Fabulous, Jeff! ,,, this is so striking .. & the sky is so ... BIG! {love the light shining through the clouds - a great highlight to the darker colours; the mast lines details show through so clearly} ; an image of Magnitude :)))

Love the dark mood to this image Jeff. Spent many a time walking the streets of Salem checking out the old graveyards. Nicely done!!

It feels as if one could just reach into this beautiful picture, Jeff, and capture a handful of the mood and dampness of the scene. The ship, the rain cloud, the blackness of the storm, and all the other details come together for one great shot, beautifully handled. L/F
