Wow ... they lay down rock first???

I was surprised by this as well when I first saw it, I guess they know what is required for a good foundation.

Interesting photo, I'm not a subject slave, if you show vision, I'm on your side, that said, consider getting rid of the top river detail completely , you may end up with a more powerful graphic image.

Cool.... thanks W44 I looked your suggestion by scrolling and you are right. :)

Man o man.... I was there today form the other side of the creek and you get a real sense of how much they've dammed it up if you go form the south side! They've built it up considerably since I was last there!!
I find it really quite fascinating!:)

Nice curve and composition!

Nice composition Casil. I like the way beavers Know that curved lines in a dam will make it much more stable. Humans did it for the Confederation bridge between PEI and New-Brunswick.
