Evaporating Buildings
Many of you may have wondered, as I have, how it happens that buildings in large and small cities come and go with such relentless rapidity. Entire skyscrapers vanish overnight! Well! Our tenacious architectural photographer has discovered their secret.
It was late afternoon and an innocent mist appeared to settle quietly; as if on silent cat-feet, one might say. Slowly and imperceptibly a tall, newish building on the far left seemed to be disappearing. At first our photographer was simply captivated. And then she gasped. Could it be? Yes it could!
These buildings were evaporating overnight!!
And here we have the very, very first documentation of this improbable phenomena.
