Another shot taken this past Saturday. I'm real big on these old things for some reason, can't figure out why, but.....
And ya know the coolest thing? I didn't mess with any coloring or filters in any of my photo programs. The sky just so happened to be really that blue! Very beautiful day it was! I got a few different shots in of these so I may just play around a little bit.
I definitely want to say thank you to Steeleyes101; mandloks; Rainastorm and Richardphotos for their awesome comments left for me yesterday. Thank you thank you! I will keep experimenting with the mirrored images in my mind wherever I may go.....:)
Thank you again for any views and comments, they are all appreciated and taken to heart,
Love,freedom,and peace, Velvet.

Now this is good specially since you did not use filters or color corrections. I too love photos like this and use to take lots of what I call historical shots. Historical because they are moments in time and these two may be there for the next 50 yrs or gone tomorrow and once gone never to be replaced so it is kind of historical ,,, see what I mean. Excellent work here Bravo

Water towers...cool things, like fire escapes...and they're vanishing! This photo rocks on numerous levels. The colors are astounding, the POV is great, and there's a mood that seems somewhat haunting as well. It's a great piece of work. I am a particular fan of photographs that capture the "real" world, as in the world that isn't staged or "pretty" or anything like that. There's nothing much to see in water towers and yet there's so much to see in them! It's not really a matter of what you see but how you see it. Fantastic work! And it's funny, the date-stamp in the lower right corner makes me think of this as a still from a film for some reason, that's the kind of thing I'd definitely leave in just for added artistic umph...whether accidental or not, I think that the inclusion of a time/date stamp just adds to the image itself. It's like a Japanese potter leaving a fingerprint or flaw in a perfectly good teacup, which is what Japanese artists do. Nothing in nature is "perfect" there's always something that "doesn't belong" and the inclusion of that is not only brave, but honest and provocative. Great work! I am glad that I discovered your gallery, and now I know I have some catching up to do.

when I was in the Philippines on one trip, I was coerced into painting one water tower about half the size of the smaller one in your picture and all I had was good shoes and sandals. so I used the sandals and the re-bar walkway was murder on my feet .since then it has been removed thank goodness. I went up to catch the sunrise .excellent shot
