Beauty & the Beast
by Sky

Weatherford, Texas

This photo is a bit deceiving as it was once the site of a city dump. If you walk up the other direction, the stream bed is lined with old bottles, some perhaps collectible. The area is now designated as a park. There is a small bridge that passes over this area - but most people simply cross and miss this sideshow.

I love the soft feeling of this, Sky. Very tranquil scene, nicely captured.

Sky, I like that you have seen and portrayed such beauty from the ruins of a dump! As Frank noted, you have created a dreamlike atmosphere that enhances the "story" of the photo. - Kathy

A very calming and dreamy atmosphere, you have captured and expressed here, Sky. Certainly people do miss an opportunity.
