I get to meet a lot of great people in my line of work. The owner  was extremely gracious and accommodating in allowing two crazy guys with flashlights to explore his mill, so a big thanks to Brad! And, thanks also to my friend Don for finding this place.

I love architecture. But I’m also fascinated by the evolution of design in manufacturing, in this case cattle feed. Machines grow based solely on function, yet there’s often an aesthetic that appeals to me.

The Ice Light once again worked flawlessly.

A camera of a different breed

I don’t know the proper name. To me it’s just another big old camera. One thing about my chosen field, I never know where I’ll be shooting next. One day bundled up in a freezing old flour mill and the next, dressed in a ‘clean suit’ complete with booties and cap, photographing this state of the art thing at LGH. And yes, the equipment was thoroughly cleaned between the two. But what I really love is meeting great people along the way. Folks from Benchmark Construction and  Dardoff Design and Architects were present for the shoot. And of course, Marcia … who I’ve really come to depend on when shooting interiors. Everyone pitching in to make things go smoothly. Thanks also to the hospital staff who facilitated everything. (Someone snapped a picture of me in my little white suit … but you ain’t gonna see it).

Flour Mill Machinery

Another visit to the 19th century flour mill. Don’t know what this thing does, but I love photographing all things iron.

The mill has lots of windows and I was shooting during the day, so short of blacking out all of the windows, the long exposures needed for painting with a flashlight were out of the questions. The only reasonable option was to use flash. Not nearly the results that can be had with the flashlight, but with a little care it’s possible to bring new life to an old subject.
