Description
From my series: Man in the WaterDuring the thaw in Muskoka this past spring, water levels rose quickly and caused enormous amounts of damage along shorelines. The owner of this home was one of the most unlucky ones when early one morning the water literally picked up the house from its sonotubes and dropped it into the water. Fortunately no one was injured, 2 days before the disaster the owner had asked his tenants to leave the home for safety reasons.
Muskoka, Ontario, Canada.

Was a beautiful little house too. At least the other one survived. But it's ruin was not entirely in vain; it's a work of art now. I like what you've done with the ambient lighting.

Thank you. It was a fairly new home too, maybe only a decade old but it was built in a flood plain and its demise was not entirely unlikely.
