    OMGosh! This is beauty. Even more beautiful than donkey’s tool in the calypso song about who is king of the beasts.

    It is donkey first, second and third
    And Dove tell Lion flat
    If you were the king of the beasts
    You’d be toting that

    Great shot Beverly. I took a pix from a smiliar perspective, while the paint had not yet flaked off the railing. Nice clear, haze-less day for scenery photography.

    Hmmm, mistook the railing for a huge pipeline on first impression. Thats the power of PERSPECTIVE.

      Haven’t you heard of something called Hi- Definition Camera? It is possible that the photographer used one of those.

      Good observation…the paint is peeling and the river looks blue, a nice blue though. The peeled areas give the appearance of a large pipe carrying water, which is what I thought the photo was about. I must be a pessimist.
