Clouds again by Peter Brooks
Evening light yesterday. Spot the lead mining chimney way up on the horizon, more or less just a black dot.
Self converted D200, AF 18-55mm kit lens (at around 35mm).
Peter, you must travel the back roads to find things like these! A lot of character. I like them. The first must be silos. The second is a hunting camp?Quote:

People from Chicago have summer homes around the lake, and this convergence center has tons of strange things, an old hotel, houses, cabins, a 36 hole golf course, old barns, about 12 weird towers....They have summer camps for kids, conferences, and....? I think it was originally associated with the Baptists, but I'm not sure that's still true. They have a train car that was used for missionary work in the West from about 1907-1945 (ish). Now, it's a small church with pews that can hold 50 people.Quote:

And your image has an air of mystery to it, unlike their boring image!Quote:
