Background on my urban landscape shot:



I forgot to put this in the notes section. Since it's such a cool place, I thought I'd post it here. :)

This is the pipeline. It's a walking path along the river that runs under a train trestle in downtown Richmond.



You get to it by going down a short ladder



The first part has a catwalk over the pipeline



But after awhile, you are walking on the pipe itself



If the river is high -- it covers the pipeline



The river, as seen from the pipeline, on a high water day



It's such a cool place. It's about an hour from me, otherwise I'd probably spend all my time there.

Just thought I'd share it with you. :)

congratulations! you are now on the DHS watchlist.

taking pictures of a pipeline is serious terrorist activity.

haha! You wouldn't believe the cameras on the pipeline -- for a different reason completely.

Funny, I've been there. Visited my friend in Richmond once and explored all over that area. Really nice image. I didn't recognize it until I saw the shots of the pipe.

Really great shot! Thanks for showing the background. I love to see this stuff and very rarely get to. The back stories on photographs are always awesome! I love to hear about locations, conditions, lighting, all that jazz. Thanks vawendy!
