 This is known locally as "Scargo Tower", and is situated in the town of Dennis on the mid cape. It's the third tower built at the site, over 110 years ago. The first tower (made of wood) was blown down in a gale and the second burnt to the ground. I think this will be spared both those fates. On a clear day you can see all the way to Provincetown from the top. I had been here in the early morning this day, but in the evening the sky just kept getting more and more interesting so I drove back for more pictures.

HDR of three images. These were taken and processed with the "In the style of Ansel Adams" challenge in mind, but I ended up submitting something else. (IMG_4033,4034, & 4035)

Love the sky! Image really works in B&W, but think the whites and blacks could've been pushed a little to give more of a tonal range --- right now it's a little flat. 7
