Description
I liked the pitted surface of the iron. This was probably put in around 1915-ish at the original town of Maryhill, long since gone. (The town burned in the year I was born. I'm sure it was just a coincidence.) :P

maybe not?! LOL Great capture Tara - Tarahill?

Maybe the pitting is caused by the burning? I wonder if it still works if there's no town to have a fire for it to extinguish. This is really great. Pitting is beautiful. The light is fantastic too.

Very old piece of metal. Nice clear photo Tara.

Apparently this was the only hydrant in town..... :-) A wonderful detail shot of this old hydrant, Tara!

Superb capture Tara. God bless.

Another title "Endurance". It looks in fair shape for its age. Nicely seen, especially with the flowers in the background. I can't believe the town burned and everyone just shrugged their shoulders and walked away. Apparently "Oh well" is not a modern expression.

Nice shot! And Chip's question is a good one; I think you need to go back and try to turn that valve open!

I'm with everyone else!!! Go open the hydrant. Next photo we want to see you running through the water!! Really cool textures on that.

Oh, oh. Great light and contrast. Deep sharpness on iron texture. Well done

The juxtaposition of the old pitted iron hydrant against the wild greenery and the flowers really makes it stand out. It may be old, it may be pitted, but it looks like it has another couple of centuries left in it. Great capture!

LOL! Tara :-) Super shot of this old and rusty fellow, standing there with his chain dripping nose. Bet he could have told alot of exciting stories.
