Thank you for all views and comments; all are very much appreciated.

John H. Kerr Dam at 144 feet (43 meters) in height and 2,785 feet (848 m) in length impounds the Roanoke River. The project was completed in 1953 with the primary functions of controlling flood water and producing hydroelectric power. The lake created by the dam is known variously as Buggs Island Lake, Lake Gaston and Kerr Reservoir. This view is in Mecklenburg County, Virginia.

The U. S. Army Corps of Engineers has information on the dam specifications and on recreational usage of the area; there is also a picture gallery at www.saw.usace.army.mil/jhkerr/index.htm

A reflection in the tail light of a car—Raleigh, North Carolina. Aside from enhancing the colors and darkening some, this is pretty much how the photo came out.

The N&W pre-planned and built the town of Crewe, Virginia (Nottoway County) in 1888. It was designed first and foremost to support the operations of the N&W as a Divisional halfway point between Norfolk and Roanoke, Virginia. In the Early 1980s, the Norfolk & Western and the Southern Railroads merged into its current entity. The rail yards at Crewe look spectacular from the bridge on State Route 49 heading towards Victoria. The yard presents its own unique geometry.

Cardboard compacted for trash (I guess), taken at Walmart in Farmville, Virginia. This is where I was politely told not to take pictures (I'm sure they had a reason, sound or unsound).
