Harnessing the Fire

San Onofre, CA

Best if viewed in the Original

I saw all these SP mug shots (literally and figuratively) on Pbase today, and tried a few of myself. Then I said, nope! I’ve got a better picture to post than one of my face.

This is the San Onofre nuclear power plant up the coast from me by about 50 miles. Sometimes I think we should revive the use of atomic reactors as power sources.

Canon EOS 40D ,Canon EF 24-105mm f/4L IS USM
1/500s f/8.0 at 105.0mm iso400 full exif

other sizes: small medium large original auto
