Big Bobber
I had to do a little traveling for work today and got to visit the lovely town of Pequot Lakes Minnesota. They have one of the coolest water towers. Some refer to it as Paul Bunyan’s Bobber or the World’s Largest Fishing Bobber. In 1987 it was converted from a regular old water tower and turned into a bobber. Then in mid 2000 the city retired the bobber after a new one was built. I remember when the new one was built they were talking about turning the old one into a golf ball on top of a golf tee :) I am glad they left it alone it is a pretty neat landmark.

Cool picture. I love the color. It's nice and crisp. Great job.
Cool water tower! I bet someday when the fields close to it aren't about 3' deep in snow, it would also make a cool picture angled more from the base looking up! You did a wonderful job adjusting the levels in yesterday's photo. Really makes the colors pop!
Great picture! The red stands out really good against the blue sky, great colors!

So fun to see this water tower as I have a yearly weekend with girlfriends right near there! Make me smile!
That blue sky is beautiful, love the shade. That red/white against it looks nice, almost a little like Memorial Day or something.
I love the beautiful, vibrant colors you captured in this shot. That sky is soooo blue! I think water towers are the coolest. Very nice capture!
Great colors and focus! I sure wouldn't want to climb up there. Thanks for the Photobucket tip re: Blogger!
I love this, Jason. It brings back many a summer day, out on the lake, watching one of those. Love the contrast with that BLUE (I am so envious) sky!
