This shot's been plaguing me for a couple of days now. It follows on from my previous Dragon's Reach shot. I know it's not quite right (among other things I had the wrong susprite fx installed when I was shooting it) but I revisited it and couldn't quite capture the same feel so I decided to post it bugs and all and move on...
The northbound train has jut delivered a fresh load of empties and picked up some loaded boxcars at the Morningstar Packing company in Williams California. If you buy any kind of canned tomatoes in the western US, there is a good chance they came from here,
Took this one a few years ago, forgot I had it, but came across it yesterday and am happy to have another photo to add to my red barn series.
The Morningstar Mill is a small, rural industrial heritage site at Decew Falls in the City of St. Catharines, Ontario. It features a working grist mill built in 1872, a turbine shed, a sawmill, a blacksmith and carpentry shop (shown), and the historic home of the Morningstar family. The Mill provides a rare glimpse back in time to when moving water was used to mechanically grind grain into flour.

My current fave TV series - and one of my current fave actors! Tom Ellis as "Lucifer bloody Morningstar". "So what is it that YOU desire most..."
Excerpt from Wikipedia:
Morningstar Mill is a 2.98-acre (1.21 ha) heritage site located in St. Catharines, Ontario, Canada. The site includes the Morningstar Mill, a sawmill, the home of the Morningstar family, a barn used for blacksmith demonstrations, and the Decew Falls gorge along the Niagara Escarpment.
The site is operated by the volunteer group Friends of Morningstar Mill and owned by the City of St. Catharines. The gristmill was restored to working condition in 1992.
After the War of 1812, landowner John DeCou built a stone-grist mill with an overhead waterwheel at Decew Falls. The property was sold in 1894, after the first Welland Canal was constructed, as the mill no longer had an adequate water supply. In 1872, a new mill was built on the foundation of the former DeCou Mill. This new mill, called Mountain Mills, was built by Robert Chappel. The new stone-grist mill was turbine-powered instead of water-powered. Mountain Mills was purchased by the St. Catharines Waterworks in 1875 to prevent claims of water loss supply when the Beverdams Creek above Decew Falls was dammed. The mill was sold to Wilson Morningstar after water supply was restored.
Morningstar would receive 1/12 of the flour or feed produced by the gristmill as payment. In 1895, Morningstar rebuilt after a fire destroyed everything except the stone structure.
Morningstar died in 1933 and his family operated the mill after his death. In 1983, the property was purchased by the City of St. Catharines.
3 exposure HDR. again, some of you may remember this scene of the Morningstar Mill from some photos I posted last summer... I had been wanting to come back here and re-shoot this scene with my wide angle lens. So here is the result - I was really pleased to be able to get these foreground grasses into the frame which had been impossible to do with my 18-70mm lens. However if you view the image at full size you will notice some significant blurring towards the corners. I am not sure how much of that is caused by the wind and how much has been caused by a short coming in the lens focus. I have just been reading some reviews of the Sigma 10-20mm and they do report loss of focus towards the corners. I am finding this quite frustrating because otherwise this would be one of my very best images...
