Windsor, Ontario has a wonderful riverfront view of Detroit, Michigan. The two cities share the Detroit River, which serves as the international border between Canada and the United States. Two of my favourite subjects to photograph along the river are the Detroit skyline, and this old water pumping station on the Windsor side of the river. Built at the beginning of the 20th century, this old structure is an example architecturally of a much different time, compared to the buildings along Detroit’s riverfront.
There are 4 old pumps in Woodford, two of which are in Chigwell Road some distance apart and this is the larger of the two there. It's a very busy road but for photographic art (!), I've shown it this way.
I understand there is a local group who look after them and re-paint them annually.
Not been feeling it of late. Our pumpkin is coming on anyway.

I couldn't find much information about this online, but it appears this facility used to be part of the Indiana Army Ammunition Plant. The IAAP closed down in the early 1990s and most of the property has since been torn down. Part of the property would later become the Charlestown State Park in 1996. This building is one of the remnants that can be viewed from inside the park.

Today I went out for a rural sunset, after a bit a light unfortunately a large layer of clouds blocked the real colors. However, this shot was on the way. I couple of weeks agoI racebiked past this pumping station (gemaal) and like the setting a lot.
Hope you have a great weekend and many thanks for your favs, comments and views :-)

Abandoned power plant for a former paper factory
The last part of the power plant in this stream shows the old boiler house, which contains two water pipe radiant boilers by Steinmüller, built in 1936 and 1950, with travelling grate firing for hard coal - operating pressure 25 atü. I hope, my English is correct ;-)

It is that time of year where things might go bump in the night, the chill starts to set in, and the Pump-King awakens. Imagination and senses go wyld. He is coming for you Barbra.

This is the Flathead River and the Pump House that is part of the Flathead Irrigation Project. The pump house was built around 1940. It intakes water from the river....shoots it up the steep bank and deposits it into the Pablo Reservoir to irrigate hundreds of acres in the Flathead Vally. The Flathead Valley produces potatoes and wheat mostly, with corn and Canola as rotator crops. Along that pipe there are stairs so crews can get up and down the hill for maintenance.....355 stairs to be exact! It's also quite a workout if one wishes to do some stair stepping! :-)
Stay warm all!
Thanks for viewing!
This is not some hollowed out replica I tried to see if I could move it and it must have weighed hundreds of pounds. Restored to mint conditioned genuine vintage gas pump, Only $4800!
Swanbourne Pump House, Arundel, West Sussex.

An extensive row of gas booster pumps that once supplied a large factory which has long been abandoned.
A rusted water pump without a handle greets occasional visitors to this multi-faceted barn that has several additions to the original structure. Few youngsters today can identify with pumps like this and an older adult has to explain to them what purpose they served years ago.
Before we got electricity on our farm in 1949, our farm place had a couple of these and one of them was a shorter version standing on the edge of a white tin sink in our kitchen and was the source for water in our home. There was no switch on our kitchen pump and if you wanted a cool drink on a hot summer day you had to grab the handle and pump up and down until the pump “caught” and started to bring up water.
I was too young at the time to understand the physics behind how a pump could bring up water by simply pumping the handle but I learned not to feel badly about my ignorance as I realized my mother who was 38 at the time didn’t understand it either. She would often have to go outside and yell for my dad to come in and she would advise him the pump was dry probably needed new rings as it would not work anymore.
Dad would snort and find some water to pour down the pump shaft and then give the handle some strong action and it wasn’t long before water would once again gush out.
Our outside pump near the hog shed was another matter. Sometime my dad would have to start a small fire in the winter time to thaw it out before it would work. My older brothers who fancied themselves aspiring Red Skeleton comedians would encourage me to lick the pump handle, telling me the sub-zero winter temperatures made it taste sweet.

Sometimes it is fun to take my Yashica 44 for a walk. I have been cutting down 120 film to 127 with variable results.
I fell in love with this diesel pump at a local farm.
The swirly bokeh and the looks from the Fomapan 100 at ISO 50 makes a very nice combination.
