I am impressed with the photograph. It has an ethereal quality to to it. What type of water treatment is going on in the photograph?

I clicked on that image because I was thinking, what the hell can you possibly show at a water treatment plant that is worth seeing? You showed me! And then some. Incredibly well done.

Hi, Dennis. Originally, it was just for me. However, the manager of the plant loved it so much, I made a copy and presented it to the plant. I'll let the people fight over it.

Well done Bob. Composition is excellent as is exposure. I love the black and white. Was this possibly for an annual report for some company or just for you?

This photo was 120. I was shooting 4x5 yesterday, Sunday. A friend I went with was shooting 8x10. We had a blast. I just finished processing those negatives a few minutes ago.

tbpmusic, it's a gray water plant. Water from this treatment facility is piped to nearby parks for irrigation. It's just 2% short of being drinking water.

OK, what sort of water plant is that?
Doesn't look like your standard sand filter setup.......

I saw the one in Chicago and these facilities are why we have clean water.
One of if not the most important piece of infastructure in modern society.
A caption is always good for stuff like this.
Great idea and execution.
If you are ever in Chicago give me a buzz.

James, rgmichel, and d2b2, thank you very much for the visit and comments. It's waste water reclamation. They have several stages that it goes through and this is only one, but the most visually impressive of the bunch. From here it's pumped through pipes to the nearby parks for irrigation. It's actually quite clean by the time it leaves here.
