Jostein, you could sell this shot to the devlopers for PR! ;-) Honestly, I remember seeing thsi thing from overlook near the campgrounds at GFM and thought it was such an eyesore. Nonetheless, just drive around the area and you can see the retirement population growing as well. We have some of that here in the Shenandoah Valley.

Now that I look at the link, I remember it. Unlike Jostein, I tried to shoot ~without~ it in my frame. It was a hideous blemish in an otherwise beautiful view from the lookout point a hundred yards or so from PDML Central. Jostein's attempt to make it pretty, by waiting for lovely swirls of morning fog (at least I assume it was morning fog - I wasn't up early enough to see morning fog, I don't think...) to envelope it, fall a bit short. Nice try, though, Jostein! <vbg> cheers, frank -- "Sharpness is a bourgeois concept." -Henri Cartier-Bresson
