The Enginehouse area in the Fort Bragg yard of the CWR has never looked like a work of art to me. However, there are those who see beauty in the most mundane of objects. Earlier this month my sister-in-law, Sabine, was visiting from England and she was fascinated by the colours and textures she saw in the Skunk Yard. As Sabine said, “There is a lot of difference in looking and seeing”.

As you can see in the samples below she is a very gifted photographer. To see the full gallery go to the bottom of this page.
