Hope you are having a nice week. It’s Wednesday – where has the week gone? It’s one of those weeks for me – it feels like I haven’t done much at all. Anyway, I am going back in time (2 months) for this submission.
The Marble Boat or Boat of Purity and Ease (Qing Yan Fǎng) is on a lake on the grounds of the Summer Palace in Beijing. Only the base is marble, while the pavilion is made of wood.

...Evelyn,
It's not floating, am I right?
I love your black and white shot.
Kind regards, Sadami
I love the way you took shot of this in black and white! Happy Mid-week!
What a beautiful boat. Great Capture.
@Sadami - it's built on the water so yes, not really floating.
@ewok1993: It doesn't sail unfortunately. It's just there for viewing.
Beautiful boat, looks great in B&W.
That is gorgeous! I have always wanted to live on a houseboat, like Quincy, this would be even cooler! :)
Yup, I agree with everyone, this works beautifully in b&w!
