Marilyn, your reaction was much like Emily's.  And my response is much 
the same.  The pile alone didn't yield anything I liked.  The contrast 
from dark to bright and hard to soft was what make the scene for me.  
And, as a tourist, I had no control over time of day that I was there or 
the lighting.
