Thanks Mikey, Mrs. Pops and I were at the very top! She was a little nervous about going to the top but I figured if I paid for the trip I was going to make it. She's glad we did after the fact!

Fantastic shot, Pops! Right on topic, too. What level were you on when you took this? Cheers, -mikey

Thanks, I've taken the comments to heart. The original post was pretty much straight out of the camera. When I took this picture I was thinking about the tower as a giant sundial! LOL

I cropped it a little tighter to eliminate the tower at the bottom and the distracting light blue pool at the top. I applied a very small rotation to get the painted strip on the bridge perfectly vertical. I applied a little skew to the right side to get the roads horizontal.

Zap! Wamo...! Pow, a real winner....I love this, conceptually and photographically...maybe the tighter crop and rotate to the left a little to even up the blue pool at the top...but, regardless, this is great. Traveller

I am with Lydia on this, Way Cool! I might have cropped the the little bit of the tower off the bottom of the picture for neatness sake but other than that this is really wonderful! ~Sharon
