The Tin Man

This is the fourth shot in a series of the Columbus Water tower. Please see my previous post for it.... http://quoththerav3.blogspot.com/2008/02/columbus-water-towers.html. Now it has been painted this shiney silver reflecting in the bright sunshine earlier in the week. It reminded me of the Tin Man from "The Wizard of Oz". I took a lot of other Sky Watch shots, but this one kept calling out to me so I really wanted to use it. I took another one of it this morning in the drizzling rain, but it was not as good. I had raindrops on my window. The blue off the rain clouds was reflected on the left side which was kind of neat, but I could not see it in the photo like I saw it in reality. Last night I took some night shots with and without flash. I re-took my previous eerie Sky Watch post that you all liked. This time there was no blurr; no errieness. I may save it for Odd Shots but I think I like the eerie one better. The white flowers are blooming here now. The night shot I took of them without flash did not turn out well. I will have to retake them again with flash. Hopefully this weekend...

Still it makes me wonder what color this tower will be next week...

I am asking for your prayers for my Uncle Bert again. We knew he had a mass on his brain which could have been causing his mini strokes. They finally got back all the results of his MRI's and said he has a tumor, but that is all we know at this point. He is no longer able to write out a check now. I took this pretty hard at work since he is one of my favorite Uncles, an uncle by marriage not by blood but he might as well be because he is family. Thank you in advance for your prayers. I was told today that there are lots of people walking around with a brain tumor. We are going to see him after work so Don can see if he can fix his chair that broke.

If you would like to participate in Sky Watch Friday, please go to... http://womtig.blogspot.com/ for today since Dot is away. Hope you all have a great Sky Watch weekend, my friends.
