About 30 miles south of me is the city of Sunol, Ca. Here is a picture of what is known as the Sunol Water Temple. The inscription surrounds the upper girth so I cant take one picture of that and get the whole thing naturally but this is what it says: I will make the wilderness a pool of water, and the dry land springs of water.The streams whereof shall make glad the city of God. Isaiah 41:18 and Psalms 46:4. I opted for a up-close and upwards towards the roof area perspective to capture the best part of the beautiful structure. I have images of the entire structure but you really can't appreciate the beauty unless your up close.Thanks for looking. If your interested go here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sunol_Water_Temple

You couldn't have done any better in my humble opinion, BB. You even picked a day with blue sky. Faved

Lovely pic. It looks like you've used a tone mapping application.

The reason why the sunsets in the evening is because it wants to see the sunrise in the morning. I rise in the morning because I want to see them both. RvdB
