UPDATE:

 The NYTimes “A Moment in Time” collection has been published.  Check it out  A Moment in Time interactive gallery – Earth, covered by stacks of thousands of virtual photographs, corresponding in location to where they were taken by Lens readers at one “Moment in Time” (15:00 U.T.C., Sunday, May 2).

I want to let you all know that a photo of the needle on Mt Tabor will be a part of the NYTimes “A Moment in Time” collection to be published Tuesday evening online. People worldwide were asked to photograph something close to their lives (what’s closer than water?), at exactly the same time all over the world. Mt Tabor is close to my home and immediately sprang to mind as a good photo location.
 
I’ve walked almost every day on Mt. Tabor this spring, but hadn’t been there for a couple of weeks and was totally surprised by the needle poking out of the ground next to the reservoir on Sunday morning at exactly 8AM when I took this shot. It was sent a couple of hours later, along with as clear an explanation as I could write.
 
I love the installation. I think it clearly illustrates my feelings towards our wonderful open reservoirs. Thank you very much for such a lovely surprise.
