Hazy summer afternoon in central Illinois. I'm working on a more crisp and clear photo this spring. The actual photo is much more crisp and sharp. Scanner took some of that away.
The Springfield Moss workshops on 2nd June 2015, where the company's fleet of around a dozen locos were overhauled. In for attention before the cessation of rail traffic following acquisition of the company by Westland Horticulture Ltd on 1st August 2015, was Alan Keef 4-wheel diesel-hydraulic L2 'Jeffrey' (W/No.19 of 1985) from the 2-ft gauge system at Auchencorth Moss. 'Jeffrey' was sold on for private preservation in Norfolk by September 2015. Westland Horticulture disbanded the four remaining railway systems at Auchencorth Moss, Cladance Moss (East Kilbride), Ryeflat Moss (near Carstairs) and Springfield Moss, and the last loco was finally disposed of in January 2017.

My favorite detail is the carpet-like effect created by the pigeon deterrents on the top of the sign.
the customer area in the old section of the Springfield Post Office has been opened to the public. What a wonderful room.... Remember when public buildings were officious, serious and imposing? This is it!
Ceiling edgings are still vibrant and beautiful.
This image is from a body of work I made last semester. The class was a Documentary Photography class. I had just moved out of my parent's house in a small, quiet, rural town, to an apartment by myself, in the city of Springfield, known for its high crime rates, and below middle class areas. I made this body of work about the people who lived in this city, using their homes a way to show how these people live, and sort of a description of who they are. The images are also about boundaries, and the sort of barrier and disconnect I feel with this city. Scariest body of work I've ever made. I was always alone, creeping around people's homes with my camera. I always left my car running right next to me so I could just jump in a drive away really quickly if anyone tried to bother me. Thankfully, no one ever really did.
These people were really funny. I saw them in the windows when I was driving by, and thought it would make a wonderful photo, so I pulled over and grabbed my camera. I hollered up to them asking if they would mind if I made a photograph of them. They replied, "No! No, we have no money!" I said, "I don't want your money, I just want to take your picture!" They thought I wanted to sell them the photograph I think. But they finally said okay, although I don;t think they were still very sure of what I wanted from them. If you look closely there's a dog in the bottom left window who was barking at me the entire time I was photographing. :)

I've seen other people's elaborate designs for the Prison. I admit that with the prison, I did not have any desire to be elaborate. I like the idea of an island prison; kinda like Rikers.

Springfield Rugby Football Club vs Sunday Morning Rugby Football Club on March 16, 2019 at the Springfield Pitch. Springfield wins 29-24!
The listing of businesses is clearer than the reasons why individual photos were chosen for inclusion in the book. Here appears to be a broad view of Springfield perhaps photographed from a hillside. Several ads to come are about bicycle makers and sellers with one stating Springfield was a "Bicycle city". Maybe this was taken from one of the bike trails in 1895.

www.urbanjacksonville.info/2007/10/17/podcast-episode-13-... In this episode I talk with Phillip Ramsey and Jennifer McCharen about the Springfield community garden. The garden is located on Main Street in the raised lot north of The Pearl.
We talk about how the garden got started, plans for the garden and Jacksonville in general. Eventually Phillip and Jennifer hope to provide space for the community to grow their own food and possibly provide food for their neighbors and the surrounding downtown community.
