This old water wagon was the only way they had to irrigate crops high in the hills of Eastern Oregon and Eastern Washington in the early days. Wheat and hay relied on the weather. And yes, that is a cow skull hanging from the wagon.
This grim, gritty water wagon is completely captivating. You turned a relic of the past into a masterclass in texture and contrast. An amazing photograph!
Un buen modo de solucionar las sequias. La foto es una maravilla Bill. Me encanta el monocromo y como has sabido mostrarnos ese extraño artilugio. Abrazo

That skull made the image quite spooky sight lol
Impresionante este vestigio de otros tiempos que has captado.
Magnifico el encuadre
How interesting is this photo.
Muy dura tenía que ser la vida en aquellos tiempos. Esa antigualla lo confirma. El craneo de vaca sería como un amuleto, no?

That water wagon is an amazing relic of the past. It was probably pulled by horses back when it was being used.
