A little background:

First, I know nothing of photography, other than having a basic sense of which side of the camera you point at the thing you're photographing.

Second, my two sons really like water towers, so when I find one that they haven't seen, I try to snap a pic of it for them.


I grabbed this one today around 2:00 in eastern Ohio, and I really like the way it came out. This particular tower was painted within the last year, so that explains the bright blue, and I like the contrast against the greens and browns of the landscape.

But what really interests me, in part because I didn't notice them when I took the picture, is the way that the fenceposts are sort of skewed out of vertical.

I'm not saying that it's photo for the ages, of course, but since I basically leaned out the window of my car and snapped a few pics, I was surprised at how this one turned out.

Thanks for looking, and by all means feel free to share your own water tower pics!
