Nothing like standing in urine when making a photograph.  It apparently had dried, but the smell was quite pungent.  Before I set up my tripod, I looked for feces, which has been here in the pastI am standing on a bridge, with the tender's station building.  It is possible to walk behind the station, providing a sheltered observation post, which is why I think it serves as public toliet.
