Lovely landscape capture, Richie.
It has a somewhat dreamy/soft appearance. I wonder whether this is the result of editing or because of some thin mist in the distance. Wonderful anyhow!

If you think you can't accept something, try to change it. But if this doesn't work, don't be frustrated, but give it later another try. The one who perseveres wins! Please CLICK HERE to see my journal! Feel free to save my images or to add them to your favorites.

Boy that looks fancy for a water pumping station - but it is in such a lovely spot.

I had to Google this because of my fascination with old structures and their former uses. For other Caedesians who might be wondering, this is a former lead mine that became disused around the early 1900s, and this pumping plant was built on it to supply water to the city of Consett, in County Durham, about 23 km (14 mi.) south-west of Newcastle upon Tyne. Besides the architecture (and your angle and cropping shows the place in much better favor than a flickr photo I found of it does, and where I found the info), I love the colors and muted mood of the layers of growth around it. That flickr capture is clinical, while yours is art, Richie. Love this one.

If you've ever wanted to make a difference but found it hard to believe that one person could... check out the Kiva Team Caedes discussion thread and discover that anything is possible.
