Downstream

We need to have better respect for ourselves and our fellow inhabitants.

Our natural waterways, sewers, and municipal stormwater systems can be conduits delivering toxins, hormones, and carcenogenic byproducts to unintended ecosystems.

We all live downstream. A shot in the street, Anytown.

    Great capture. This photograph conveys a strong message. It really is terrifying to think about what lurks below. The world truly is a dumping ground or SEWER in this instance. I am curious, did you lift the manhole cover to photograph the result?

    Thank you all for the very kind compliments! This is proving to be a strong theme with many excellent photos- thanks again to everyone sharing. And no, Shane, I did not lift the manhole for fear of what I might find below.
