Near Disaster - a photo on Flickriver

Near Disaster

            I placed my camera on my small tripod on  the concrete base of a light just like the one in this photo.  Anyway, I reached out to change some setting on the camera, and just about knocked it into the river!  Yikes!   I did like the shapes of the shadows and reflections caught in this image.  I liked even more that my camera and tripod didn't end up as garbage on the bottom of the river.
