A very nice capture there JimS_256, the K-50+18-135 is shining in your hands.

I'm impressed, even living in Washington this is a bit of an out of the way location. Thanks for commenting.

On Flickr the full-sized photo is very sharp. Thanks for posting.

Shouldn't that be a dam, nice view?? Whatever, it's finely detailed so your glass is doing you proud.

Thanks for commenting. I still remember being impressed the first time I say it (circa 1970).

That's a Dam nice picture. the old brick work sets it apart form newer buildings.

I agree about the brick work. It's stunning.

It's fenced off and has security now but at one time you could drive right up to the building. I remember walking all around it even climbing to the top of the dam (that was 1970). The one employee I saw said to comeback when I had more time and he'd give me tour. Sorry, I never took him up on it.

Excellent photos. I never did have a chance to see when I lived in Spokane in the 90's The detail and composition is excellent!

Thanks! I don't think most people in Spokane know it's there. It's a bit out of the way.
