While walking in downtown Ottawa, found this broken water pipe.

The view was good enough for me to take out my DSLR and take a few snapshot.

Hardware: Body: Sony Alpha 100, Lens: maxxum 50mm f/1.8.

Broken water pipe, downtown Ottawa with a "Business open as usual" sign. . Evidently, the sign was there as an information about road construction - not about the water pipe. I'm pretty sure the usual business life was a bit slowed.

I took the snapshot with my Sony DSLR Alpha 100, with manual setting.
