Amber (And Gold) [Contest Finalists September 2011]
Uploaded: September 01, 2011 05:21:28
Water is becoming an even more precious natural resource in the drought-stricken areas of the USA. The population growth in the southwest coupled with less average rain over a span of years is starting to stress many towns that at one time would have never believed they'd ever have a shortage of water. This image was taken in southwest Colorado, where they have water enough for now.
