Sue Llewellyn’s Word A Week Challenge on A Word In Your Ear at https://suellewellyn2011.wordpress.com/2014/04/26/a-word-a-week-photograph-challenge-water/ is Water.
The images for this challenge were all taken at the same location but what a wealth of opportunity for water shots it presented!
Across the street from historic Union Station in St Louis stands Carl Milles’ fountain sculpture ‘The Meeting Of The Waters.’
The fountain represents the meeting of the Mississippi and Missouri Rivers and was originally entitled ‘The Wedding Of The Waters‘ but because the naked figures and rather risqué nature of the sculpture caused such a stir when they made their debut in 1940, local officials insisted that the name be changed.
