Particles & Waves

The Wall, Port Carling,

Linda and I visited Port Carling, Ontario, Canada on the weekend. It's a resort town in the Muskokas and we hadn't been there in many years. New to us was this cool photo-mosaic mural on an old building. It's made up of thousands of small paintings of photos of the town's first 100 years. Here's a quote from the first The Wall's site page.

"The 111-by-45-foot photo mosaic, affectionately called The Wall, provides a breathtaking welcome to Port Carling. It comprises 9,028 pictures that together create the image of the RMS Sagamo passing through the Port Carling locks circa 1922. Viewed up close, however, each individual photo captures a moment of time in the lives of residents of Port Carling during the village’s first century (1860-1960)." More info at the link above.
