Fresh? Water

Not sure how fresh this water still is, or if it was ever that fresh to start with.

Photographed on my second visit to the Warwick Dye mills in West Warwick, RI. Apparently these were the storage containers for the "fresh" water to be mixed in with the dyes. I very much enjoy the fact that Rhode Island had such a great industrial heritage. These now abandoned places make for great subjects!

Created using my Holga 120CFN with AGFA XPS160 film. Negative scanned with my Epson v700 Perfection scanner. No digital manipulation used!
