Tucker Tower is on one of the highest points overlooking Lake Murray. Lake Murray is located outside Ardmore Ok. Tucker Tower was opened in 1938 at the same time the damn was completed. Tucker Tower was originally supposed to serve as a summer home for Gov. Alphalpha Bill Murray. Instead it serves as a museum of all the different plant and animal life found around the lake.

Might be your best one BTK. The museum is sitting pretty precariously on the ledge. That bluff is stunning. Just a great composition. Colors are bold and the angle is perfect.

I love the textures, from the water to the jagged cliff to the tower itself... and I like how you included the blue water as a contrast to the soaring view of the cliffs and tower. Nicely done.
