    Not sure I knew what to expect from the title John,

    ... but I like the composition of this scene.

    Well spotted and captured.

    If I were to nit-pick, I might suggest toning down that short foreground column to be closer to the brightness of the column immediately behind it however, given the scene is floodlit, don't overdo it, it needs to be a bit brighter as closer to the lamp(s).

    Cheers, Dave

    Hi Dave,

    This structure was part of a series of grain elevators that the community wanted to preserve, some are being refitted as art objects, some being dismantled piecemeal to preserve some of the artifacts. Thanks for comments and suggestions.

    I'm having trouble seeing this as an actual demolition. My mind says well constructed miniature with dinky-toy vehicles. nevertheless it is a fine shot.

    Brian,

    Different way to see the scene, does have that miniature look to it. Thanks for commenting.

    I like the edit better, John. The vastness of the structure as against that vehicle inside made me think of the food project I am doing with scenes I am thinking of. Excellent composition.

    Interesting perspective, John, and I get your point about the miniature look.

    Re: Same Old

    Almost a post-apocalyptic look to it. Would like to see more photos/close ups etc that focus on demolition/deconstruction without the shiny bobcat and baker (or whatever they call them there). If you do/get it right I think these can work well in B&W.
