I've had a fantastic week with Maura in Alpe Devero in the Italian Alps. Lots of snowy mountains, amazing peaceful high walks in full sun in majestic snowy wonderlands. I actually bought some snowshoes, and have used them on a couple of times in the high snowy fastness of the mountains. It's funny despite all the Alpine peaks and snowscapes, and wild skies we've had, I loved the sensuous water flows and shapes along the Toce river near Crodo especially on the Marmitte Dei Giganti. Smokestack Lightnin' is by the Groundhogs, a favourite band from the past.
A rural B&W photo taken just off US Highway 63 in a small parking area next to a field by the Curtis King Historical Marker (near Eddyville Road and Chillicothe, Iowa). The smokestack in the distance is the Ottumwa’s electric generating plant.
I borrowed the title in part from Iowa’s Silos & Smokestacks National Heritage Area (SSNHA), a name that is intended to reflect both the farms and industries that constitute agribusiness. However, the area where this was photographed is not part of Iowa’s SSNHA region… it just sounded like a good title.

My eye was drawn to these geological smokestacks at the Grand Canyon, surrounded by blue from a great sky on this day, April, 2024.

Shot this on a Glass Key Photowalk, which is happening on this last day of Roid Week. Check it out in Lower Haight if you are in SF. Gathers at noon.
In the waning hours of the morning in the town of Braddock, Pennsylvania the US Steel Edgar Thompson plant is humming away in the brutally cold temperatures which were in the single digits that morning. Edgar Thompson is the last active mill in the state with a blast furnace. Ive heard that due to space restrictions, there may be no conversion from a blast furnace to an Electric arc furnace. Mills like this are a dying breed, with only a handful of them left in the states and EAF's being more favored, its really cool to see on of these still in operation even from this distance.
These mills never sleep, only until the man decides to shut it down will they be breathing, these days a massive mill like this one could be shut down any moment, making photographing them when given the opportunity a must do.
