Green Valve

It has been awhile since I have added to my collection of valves.  I need to go out and find some more.  I like this one because it is green.  Red and yellow are far more common.

Waterous Hydrant

it has been some time since I have added to my collection of valve photographs.  I don’t think I have ever photographed a hydrant in the snow either.  This is an old one and the snow adds some character and will make a nice addition to my collection.

Valve by the bay

I am pretty excited about the latest addition to my collection of photographs of valves. This valve is not only rusty but it is near the water which makes a wonderful background for a rusty valve.

Nice to have a new valve to add to my collection.  I believe this will be valve 16 in my collection.

Rusty Valve

I found this gorgeous piece of  urban hardware when I was downtown taking photos of the  massive destruction we call light rail construction.  I wasn’t sure how to approach my subject.  I wasn’t afraid it would run away or anything but I had to get the right angle to show that beautiful rust.  I had my wide angle lens on and decided that looking up at it instead of down would be best.    If you have an interest in valves just use the search and type in valve or click on the valve tag in the sidebar.

Red and rusty

Ok maybe there isn’t a valve hall of fame because no one takes pictures of them. If there was a hall of fame I think this one would make a good candidate for it.  it is read and rusty and corroded.  They don’t get much better but I will keep looking.

Red Pipes with Valves

I am very pleased to be able to add these two beauties to my valves or urban hardware collection.  They are not only red but they have such wonderful rust and corrosion on them no doubt from the street salt used in the winter.   I get some funny looks when I get down low on a crowded street and take photos of fire-hydrants or valves.

Round and green

More building hardware.  I promise this is my last valve shot for awhile. I just needed to get it out of my system and it is out of my system until I see another valve.

Valve and shadow valve

I found this wonderful rusty valve downtown on Wacouta street and it came with a bonus shadow valve.  Sweet!
