There is a building I keep walking to in hopes that there wont be any cars in front of it...But, as usual, there were cars blocking the building...so instead, I took a picture of this one nearby.
recently there were a couple great nights of fog. i was suprised at how much light you get in the frame when the fog diffuses the light through the night air.
Keady is a tiny hamlet in Southwestern Ontario's Grey County a few miles southwest of Owen Sound. I stopped on the outskirts of town for this photo on September 16, 2019 while returning to Lambton Shores from Owen Sound.

The Bando de Kvar ( flickr.com/groups/2472126@N24/ ) finally managed to get all the members’ timetable to sync and went out for one of our occasional group photo shoots. This is another image from the Old City Niagara Falls series. While much of the old city area of downtown Niagara Falls is looking a bit past its prime, some parts are fully functional. But in this case, one such up-to-date area is a loading bay area behind one of the Queen Street businesses. The harsh light had transformed this spot into a minimalist yellow on black abstract. – JW

These are old loading docks at Sibley and Wabasha in the lowertown area of St Paul, MN. There's something undeniably irrestible about urban decay. If you let your house fall apart, it's pathetic But if some random building crumbles, well then it's art!
Technique: Recombined original metered exposure (about 50% soft light layer) with HDR to create a more realistic image with greater depth.
There are so many freakin' photo ops when walking this area. Gotta love it.

New Haven Railroad SS 214 (Tower), Avon Street and Winthrop Street, Hartford, Connecticut, 5-1-1930. You can see two tower operators in the above windows, along with a man walking past the tower. If you notice the loading platform beyond the tower, you can see a boxcar extending past the tower on the right side.
This photo came from my New Haven Railroad photo collection, and the photographers name is unknown. Any credit for this photo must be provided to the original photographer.

I went to Kansas City again today to get my hair "did" and stopped off at the West Bottoms, an old industrial area near downtown. I fell in love with the old buildings! I found a beautiful mural that you'll see tomorrow...I know, I said no more archives, but I want to share it with you!
The Fox Valley has had an impressive concentration of industry (mainly papermaking) and a maze of tracks to serve those industries for about 150 years. Over that time the fortunes of the C&NW, MILW and SOO would rise and fall several times. With those changing fortunes the paper traffic would be at times neglected, taken for granted or abused by the railroads. Wisconsin Central made a concerted effort to serve the area well and had much success. Canadian National may not have that same focus as WC did and the industry has faced larger struggles of its own.
I've seldom seen more of a stark visual example of a business giving up on rail and in favor of trucking. The rails still cross the street here on North Lake St but they don't go anywhere or connect to anything. Where there once was a bank of boxcar loading docks there is a new set of six tractor trailer bays. I don't know the whole story, and it seems this may not be a paper company anymore but perhaps a warehouser or distribution center. Regardless, it's yet another source of rail traffic gone forever.

The Bando de Kvar ( flickr.com/groups/2472126@N24/ ) finally managed to get all the members’ timetable to sync and went out for one of our occasional group photo shoots. This is another image from the Old City Niagara Falls series. At 4555 Queens Street sits a very Caribbean blue restaurant, Havana Restaurant & Cocktail Lounge, at least that is it current name. Moving around the building to view it from the back, you can look at the loading dock area and the mural’s colour scheme is very different. A hint at its former life (at least one of its iterations) is a black ghost sign seen here in the upper left of the frame. A bit of careful examination reveals the barely visible sign from the now-long-gone Omega Bar Lounge. Great colours though. – JW

Today, we finished packing the last 2 containers of Operation Christmas Child shoeboxes full of gifts destined for children in Haiti.A few of us gathered at the back of the container in the loading dock to pray over the boxes before leaving to be put on a ship.
Motion capture of a clamp truck operator headed for the next huge roll of Kraft paper, each weighing anywhere from 5,000 to 9,000 pounds, with several miles of paper on each roll.
