Nice winter foto, but was it really destroied recently by fire. What a pity.
Greetings from the Reiseveranstalter Team in Lima – Peru.
The arctic freeze sweeping the Eastern U.S. transformed a burnt-out Nebraska building into a winterland wonder.
The Waterman Opera House of Plattsmouth, Neb. — home to more than 40 buildings listed on the National Register of Historic Places — was gutted after it caught fire Friday, the Omaha World Heraldreports. Firefighters sprayed the structure with water, but thanks to the extreme cold plaguing large swaths of the nation, the water froze as soon it made contact with the concrete building, creating something of a marvel.
As sunlight streamed through the doomed structure’s windows, photographers managed to snap a few beautiful, slightly haunting images, like the one above.
Here, a nearby mailbox and bench are also seen frozen over:
The now-gutted Waterman Opera House dates back to 1882. Over the years, it has housed a grocery store, the local newspaper, a chiropractic center and other local businesses.
