Fire Hydrant

A fire hydrant overtaken by vines, a memory of life before in Love Canal.

I'm very fond of american hydrants

Fire hydrants on the outer wall of the Parliament Hill in Ottawa Canada

A lone fire hydrant standing next to an entrance to the Bruce Trail in Alton Ontario.

Hydrant Head (aka Suave) poses with tottally not his own ride we stumbled upon in a local parking garage. The car is a Rambler model from the early 60s.

A smudge upon John Alton's turn-of-the-20th-century, night snowscapes of Manhattan.

Still learning how to focus the old nikkor 55. You have to go slightly past the far edge of what the camera says is in focus. Or just to that edge.

Caught this hydrant at a truck stop in Tennessee.

I don't know why but when I walked by this, I immediatly had the impression of a dilapidated altar.

This was taken in the SW waterfront area between the Marquam and the Ross Island bridges.

I really love the VIBRANT red our fire hydrants are now. They've just recently got a brand new coat of paint! And it's surprising how much water it can put out. A guy came around to flush the hydrants a few days ago, and water shot out of the hydrant at least 20 feet. It was quite a sight to behold.

It's the new craze sweeping the nation, kids!

These are my recent black and white prints I have made from being in my photography class. I have had a little bit of trouble getting the prints to come out the way I wanted but I am getting the hang of it. I have realized it is nice to have a dark room to yourself without 5-6 other students holding you up. It is very important to have good fresh developing chemicals!

My critique is coming up on wednesday and I will be getting some feedback from my professor on things that I can change. :)

I have to pick a couple of prints to show. I think this will be one of them.
