View from my condo on Turtle Creek in Dallas. Man and nature in conflict.
The creek runs along the tree line about 30 feet below the street

Oddly enough, the photo would not be much without the light and guardrail as supporting elements. The photo makes a statement both about urban life and how the natural is never far away, despite what we may think. :smile:

I like the statement you have made with this image Rick. I think the guardrail and light post represent how man is connected with nature, and how the connection is still beautiful. Nicely seen and presented to the viewer.

Rick, I agree with Phil and Ryan's thoughts on this. Your processing looks great too and not a bad view from your condo either. :smile:
