On a weekend staycation in Miami I was able to walk around the downtown riverfront area. One of the things that caught my attention was this tall, older building illuminated in red light. up untill this point i was not aware of any history or meaning, just that it looked pretty cool, and a perfect opportunity to set my camera up on its tripod and take a long exposure.
I found out later it was the original headquarters for the Miami news and then later as a Cuban refugee center, nicknamed the Ellis Island of the South.
Being a second generation descendant of Polish/Italian immigrants via Ellis Island myself, I thought that was pretty cool.
