I know exactly where this is. But I won't give it away immediately.
I'll just say that you used to see a great set of stacks from here......

Here's my feeble guess ....

At botanical gardens near the health center ... but it's been around 10 years since I've been in that neck of the woods.

It's really a nice area to shoot in. People of course.... some water falls, but the lighting can get a little dicey with all the trees ,etc.

Well, dang! That was obviously way TOO easy if a guy from Wichita Falls gets it right off. It is a neat little haven for photography -- Heritage Park -- just north of the Tarrant County Court House.

However, as has been noted on the forum before, one should go there with eyes wide open, or better yet, with a large companion, as there are, unfortunately, a number of vagrants who frequent that place and many of the areas are quite isolated.

There are some great vistas from the overlook: the smokestacks that Tom was referring to have since bitten the dust (literally) and the Main Street bridge just north of the Court House.

This is really fun. Keep up the search for difficult places... even if we don't figure it out, it is good to see what you see as you travel around.

I really like the viaduct too from underneath. Neat structure!

I've never been down on the bike/foot path which passes beneath the viaduct/bridge. I'll have to tote my camera down there soon. Thanks for the tip.
