Assignment #7 INDUSTRIAL

schuylercat · Apr 2, 2008

Here in the northeast end of Charlotte, NC on the border of Concord there used to be a lot of dairy farms...not so much now. This is a feed barn - very "industrial" for this region. It's a juxtaposition here - my neighborhood is still under construction, and this old barn is rotting away just a few hundred yards from here.

Meanwhile, it was a really crappy photo: taken at noon in overcast conditions, it was flat, colorless, and hard to compose. I 'shopped it a little, and now it strikes me as a slightly-less-but-still-crappy photo.

But...Meg asked nicely, so Meg gets!

I read the thread and ran down to the electrical building down the street from me. They are quick shots because a guy started shouting to me to come over toward him. The new 40D was NOT going down that way. Let me know what you think.

P.S. Concealed weapons permit comes in a few months.
