Absolutely love all your photographs. For some reason, though, this one seems special. It’s not about the composition, which you always seem able to nail, even in adverse conditions, but rather something about the subject matter — the ancient and honorable in a perfect blend with the sometimes iffy contemporary, both contributing equally to a formal vitality — which I’m sure really exists as you’ve portrayed it, but which most of us would probably pass over with an eye far less discerning than yours. Thank you.
BTW one title I thought might fit this wonderful piece was–given the “arrow” effect toward a gap–was “A Double-Slit Experiment Viewed From One Side in Entirety”.
That is a beautiful photograph Chris Bertram! Your Sunday Photobloging is really great in general, but as other commenters have noted, this one is pretty special. Thank you for sharing it with us. (Thank you for reminding me to get out my own camera and to take more pictures)

I love the black monster on the left with gleaming green teeth eating a dockside establishment … what, this isn’t a Rorschach test?
