WET-From Deep In The Earth-WET



Found this one in the town center of Sandwich, Mass. Thought it was an interesting shot not only for subject matter but for the muted colors and the presence of water in several forms (water, snow, ice , wet mud) and the textures of the materials. The water source for the bubbling fountain is a deep Artesian well. People come from miles around with jugs to take the pure drinking water home. For some it is a necessity as there are plumes of chemical polution from a nearby military base tainting their wells that tap the local aquifer.
