What gets photographedPage One, the Camera and the Reader in La Palma
Nearly everything in this city arrived within one short building period, so most chimneys are the same age. Attached units are a real share here too, and those get a section of their own, since the association rather than the owner may be responsible. Marine layer mornings and moderate salt make for a gentle middle ground, though Santa Ana gusts can still strip or loosen a cap. An old fault runs nearby to the southwest, reason enough to photograph crown cracks and shifted joints.
