In Oberhausen at the Mühlheimer Strasse stand an old water-tower. This powerful brick tower was built for the water supply of the good hope hut steelworks in the year 1897. After the steel industry has retired for the most part also from this area, the water-tower has been declared to a monument and is private property now.

With my new Nikon Fisheye I have done some aerial pictures too. From such a 180 degree picture one can make a so called bubble pano. It looks like the viewer is in the middle of a bubble and can view in all directions.
