From the Stone Arch Bridge

David Marquis

This is the last of the photos that I will post on my front page. It is the view upstream on the river. The turbulence is cuased by letting out of the water in the locke lowering the height of the boat inside so they can continue down the river. You can check out the rest here or in the gallery. Today was another busy day for Yuko and I. I got the traveling bug, so we took a trip to Pepin lake, which is a man made lake along with the locke and dams that we have built on the river. It just seemed right to conclude this photo series with an activity dealing with the river.

This is a photo looking eastward from the stone arch bridge. You can see the power plant that is there along with some scary looking neo-art deco power transmittion towers. There was a water powered power plant there on the shore as you can see from the ruble that was left from its collapse. I got my photos back that Yuko and I took on Friday and let me tell you, they are awesome. These are the first photos I have taken with my new Zenit ET that I bought and it was still in the box from the factory. Well anywaz, I will be posting those phots in the near future, so please stay tuned.
