The Mill River Recluse

Disfigured by the blow of an abusive husband, and suffering her entire life with severe social anxiety disorder, the widow Mary McAllister spends almost sixty years secluded in a white marble mansion overlooking the town of Mill River, Vermont. Her links to the outside world are few: the mail, the media, an elderly priest with a guilty habit of pilfering spoons, and a bedroom window with a view of the town below.

Most longtime residents of Mill River consider the marble house and its occupant peculiar, though insignificant, fixtures. An arsonist, a covetous nurse, and the endearing village idiot are among the few who have ever seen Mary. Newcomers to Mill River--a police officer and his daughter and a new fourth grade teacher--are also curious about the reclusive old woman. But only Father Michael O'Brien knows Mary and the secret she keeps--one that, once revealed, will change all of their lives forever.

The Mill River Recluse is a story of triumph over tragedy, one that reminds us of the value of friendship and the ability of love to come from the most unexpected of places.

Boland's Mill is located on the Grand Canal Dock in Dublin, Ireland. It was an integral part of the 1916 Rising and was occupied by Eamon de Valera who would later be President of Ireland.

It stopped production in 2001. Although it is listed as a protected building by Dublin City Council it is destined to be part of a hotel and office complex.

Another one from this evening. The rays are better in this one. Single exposure shot.

It was only slightly overcast. The sun was right above the mill and there was about 4 stops in exposure between the mill and the water. I tried a HDR to even it all out. The wind was blowing hard and that made the trees look a bit funny. I hope to re-shoot this one at a later date.
