I can see why this is your zen spot. VERY impressive b&w.

Now that is what I call a sink hole! Cool high contrast processing to accentuate the circles

Fascinating place. I can undertsand why the authorities might get testy about putting things in a reservoir, though, no matter how entertaining such an act was meant to be.

This is such a cool structure. I would shoot it all the time too if I were there. This is a very attractive image.

they are beautiful, 23 metres across the opening to get some scale.

i made 30 origami paper boats and stuck candles in them and tried to sail them down it on a long exposure for the candles challenge, there were a few problems i had to launch them from the bank on the right, which is about a 3 metres deep and the wond just blew them back at me :) plus it a reservoir and there are all kind of terrorist legislation about putting stuff in it :)

they roar with a deafening thunder when the are in flood, very loud and scary

heres what its like when its low

The hole never gets old for me, so don't let that enter your head. Always very cool and wonder. I agree with Nam... kind of scary looking. There's a mystery book somewhere in there.

I'd love to see this some day -- it really is fascinating.

This is so dangerous looking. I wonder each time I see your pictures of it.
