Continuing with the night photography – tonight the Shell Station was the best of the lot. To be continued.
Shell Island, also known as Mochras, is a peninsula lying west of Llanbedr in Gwynedd, Wales. It was formed after the River Artro was diverted by the Earl of Winchelsey in 1819 from its previous course where it entered the sea to the south of Shell Island. Prior to this, access to the ancient settlement on the island would have been through the village of Llandanwg, which is now across the estuary.
This practice shell is 1.65m in length (5ft 4") and was used on a MKVII naval gun of the Royal Navy during and after WWII. A live shell would weigh over half a ton.

This shot probably would have been better if the shells weren't so dirty. Because they are so small and delicate, it's hard to get them clean without damaging or losing one or two. I tried the Photoshop healing brush, but there's just too much to "clean". I decided that natural was better, in this case.

A step away from 'designed' architecture, but equally impressive, industrial structures have a raw power and simple natural structure, resulting from the basic needs defined by the production process. They are the true examples of form-follows-function and we as architects could and should learn a lot from the built results.
This refinery is really just a hop, skip and a jump away from the town where we live, as it needs access to the harbor. An evening bike-ride with the dog let me experiment with time-exposures again. This time, Retsina didn't have to pose.
