The Fairmount Dam is part of the Fairmount Water Works. It was originally constructed in 1822 and was replaced in 1928. It's two primary uses were to channel water into the water works and to stop the tidal backwash getting upriver.

Taken from near the Market Street Bridge (I think) overlooking the Schuylkill River looking towards the Philadelphia Museum of Art. The walkway here is one of the most popular trails in the city for walking, running, biking, electric scootering, and like that.
Seen on the grounds of the Reading Blue Mountain and Northern Railroad headquarters in Port Clinton, Pennsylvania.

I was disappointed that the sky became overcast when I walked over to the art museum at Fairmount Park. I didn't like the grey sky and bare trees in color, so I gave this shot a b&w treatment.

When the State of New York stole virtually all of the trade to the newly opened West in the early 1800s with its Erie Canal, Pennsylvania scrambled to link Philadelphia with the canal system in the western part of the state. The Columbia Bridge was the result, shown here in the final concrete version dating to the 1920s. Shot on a very blustery and fairly cold day. Pretty though. I'll definitely take it over winter.

I went out with a super-zoom with the intention of shooting the full moon. The cloud coverage put an end to that. Once the colors started to appear, I scrambled and shot a panoramic cityscape of Philadelphia. This panorama is comprised of 31 photographs. My computer hates me.
If I were trying to sound fancy, I would say I previsualized this shot. The truth is, my first thought when I tried out this new Schuylkill Banks walkway was that the bend in the railing might make a great setup for the scene in the wee hours. Sure enough, it did. This was shot about 6.30 a.m. on a great, concrete-and-stainless-steel boardwalk along the Schuylkill River in Philadelphia, with the South Street Bridge in the background. You're only a few feet above river level. The materials were chosen so they could hose everything off after the river crests in a storm. I was on a mission to get this shot before Daylight Savings ends, because starting Sunday I would need to be in position an hour earlier., and the train won't get me there that early. So, necessity was the mother of today's invention.
It was Spring yesterday, allegedly, but it also was 32 degrees out there along the Schuylkill River, and very blustery. So cold, in fact, that a crew filming a model in jogging shorts quit early because she couldn't stop shivering. I liked their exotic cameras, though, complete with impressive slide rails. Cost them plenty, no doubt, which may explain why the four of them all piled into one ratty old Volvo. Put your money where it counts, I guess. The copper color of the water, by the way, was the result of heavy rains the day before. That was rain mixed with sleet, mind you.
"Celebration of Water" by sculptor Ellen Fletcher. Situated on the Schuylkill River behind the Art Museum. Poor guy went under water during the recent flooding, but here he is back at it fishing without a pole (lost some time ago).
Things are moving along at the final leg of the Schuylkill River Trail in Philadelphia, which not only has become a great place to jog, bike and walk, but has also spurred an enormous amount of condo and redevelopment work in the adjacent streets. One part of why Philly actually is growing these days, rather than shrinking. Give us a reason to be there, and we're there. Processed with a red bleach split tone.

Under downpour conditions the East Penn crew slowly crosses the Schuylkill River bridge on the return trip to PaperWorks from Falls Yard. Behind the ex-PBNE pup are the final three loads the plant will receive before it closes next week.
I stuck it out here getting rained on for up to 30 minutes waiting for them to turn while sitting in a tree that branched out over the river. Every second of it sucked royally. Both me and my gear were soaked. Sometimes you just have to eat it for something that is likely never to be seen again.
