Chain of Rocks Canal - landscape photography

Chain of Rocks Canal
Photograph by Tom Atwood
The Chain of Rocks Canal was built in the 1950s so traffic on the Mississippi River could bypass the dangerous "chain of rocks" north of St. Louis. It helped create a lovely, strange island near Granite City known as Choteau Island, a winter home for Bald Eagles, farms and a landfill. I think.
Shutter: 1/20; Aperture: f/22 (don't ask me why); ISO: 200; Focal Length: 18 mm
