Aim For The Water Tower

One of the water towers in Hastings right next to the high schools baseball field. Curious how many times the water tower has been hit with a home run ball?

Yet Another Rosemount Water Tower

The second water tower I've posted from Rosemount this week. This one is along Highway 42.

Rosemount Water Tower

I captured this Rosemount water tower while I was heading east on Highway 42. The view is to the south. The water tower appears to be in the middle of a farmers crop field. Though I don't know what the road leads to once you get to the top of the hill. I do like this view, kind of different from the norm.

The Witches Tower

A quick shot from my car window as I wait for the red light to turn green. This odd looking tower, also called the 'Witches Hat' located in Prospect Park is actually a water tower. What you might not know is, this water tower was also designed as a bandstand. Constructed back in 1913, the bandstand, incidentally, only held one concert. Carrying musical instruments to the top of the sixty foot climb proved to be quite difficult for the musicians. I must admit, this is one really cool way to hide a water tower.

A Slice In The Sky

I'm not sure what I like the best in this photo. The sliver of the moon or the tiny reflection of the sun in the water tower.

Now This Is Actually One Building

Despite all of the sections you see in the photo, they all connect in some shape or manner. What a crazy engineered hodge podge of buildings that do not match what so ever. This is the Hastings Flour Mill that I have posted on back in January with a broader view. One thing I never noticed before was the faded red water tower. When did that get up there and why had I never noticed it before. I've visited the site many times, but there it was, something new to my eyes. I've always enjoyed seeing unique water towers and this was a delight to photograph.
