Factory Butte, Wayne County, Utah.
Photographed in 665 nanometer infrared using an infrared modified Canon 20D and rendered in true color infrared.
A 30-second exposure created a nice swirl of the floating leaves at the base of the Factory Falls at George W Childs Park. I tried a longer exposure of 2-minutes and 4-minutes and the leaves blurred so much that the swirl disappeared. The feedback from digital is a great tool to find the sweet spot of shutter speed.

I decided to take a break from posting images from my recent trip to Edisto Island because after 3 weeks of processing somewhat similar images they don't appear fresh to my eyes. In the meantime, here is a nice sunset from Factory Shoals Park in Newton County, Georgia, USA. I almost missed this sunset because it looked like the sky was going grey and I had packed up my gear to hike out. Had to scramble to get a composition before the colors faded.
I just couldn't resist using this pointed rock as a foreground element leading to Factory Falls. The water level was low and the fall foliage was sparse but it was still wonderful to be outside enjoying nature.
Tucked away off the path on the way up Glaramara lies the remamnants of a stone axe factory .. probably looking very much like it did on the day the last man in furs left the site. The stone scalpings are still lying there and the rock where they must have sat is reasonably comfortable. Everyone is more familiar with the one of Pike o Stickle, but unbeknown to most there are many scattered around the Scafells and outlying ridges where outcropping of hornblende arises.
This is the site of what might be called the first recognisable 'industry' in the British Isles. The scree slopes here were quarried some 5,000 years ago for the raw materials for stone axes, which were then shaped and eventually ended up distributed round the country.
The first settlers in the Lake District came to the area by sea. They moved inland along the rivers, and along the way discovered the area we call Langdale and its greenstone volcanic tuff. They made polished axe heads with it. From here, the axe heads were exported, presumably through trading. There is a track leading east along the ridge from the site that may well date from the 'factory' period.
A study of stone axe heads from all over England and Wales came up with the surprising discovery that 27% were made of Great Langdale tuff and therefore originated from this site. Most such axe heads were found in Lincolnshire and the East Midlands area but many were found much further afield — in Northern Ireland and even Poland.
A number of the axe heads from Langdale were found in wet places — marshes, streams, etc. and showed no sign of having been used. This may indicate that they had been placed in significant spots as some kind of religious offering.
A word of warning: this site is high up and on unstable slopes of loose rock, making it a dangerous place. Not one for a family outing. And please note that it is against the law to remove anything from this site.
This building was an former nib-factory in Iserlohn, NRW, Germany.
Now it is used as an office for job seekers
The Factory is a new pub in downtown St. John's. (as if we needed another) They got a group of artists together to paint the walls yesterday. Fun event!
Factory Butte is a 6,302-foot summit in the Upper Blue Hills in northern Wayne County, Utah, United States, about 12 miles northwest of Hanksville and about 14 miles east of Capitol Reef National Park boundary. The approach and the base of Factory Butte are made of the clay/silt mudstone of the Mancos rock type, which erodes into sharp rills, deep gullies and badland-type rock (fine-grained clay/mud). The crown of the Butte is Mesa Verde sandstone, which erodes into sheer vertical cliffs.

Factory Butte in Wayne County, Utah is a 6,302-foot (1,921 m) summit in the Upper Blue Hills in northern Wayne County, Utah, United States, about 12 miles (19 km) northwest of Hanksville and about 14 miles (23 km) east of Capitol Reef National Park boundary.
The butte was so named by early settlers who thought its outline resembled a huge factory building, the Provo woolen mill in particular.
The synonymous Factory Butte in Emery County, Utah lies a mere 15 miles (24 km) to the west-northwest. The Walla Walla Union-Bulletin described it as a "Monolith that towers over the San Rafael Desert and harbors pockets of protected cacti". The Bureau of Land Management controls the area and they describe it by saying it is a popular recreation site for motor vehicles. It is also a place to view wildflowers and tourists also stop at Factory Butte to photograph blooming cacti and desert flowers.

Last weekend, I had a pleasure of photographing an abandoned building. It was awesome !!!!
The Harvey Woods building, known as one of Woodstock’s top 10 neglected buildings has been sitting “empty” since going into receivership in the 1990′s. It was recently purchased by Homestead Christian Care and they have plans to convert/renovate the building into a 50 unit affordable housing complex.
