Concrete Central 3
The third image from my venture out to this iconic location from Buffalo's commercial heyday. In this little project, I've played with color and mono versions of the various subjects, for this long hallway, I felt color suited the subject.
Technical: 3 shot HDR (handheld) using my Olympus Om-D e-M1.2 with my new m.Zuiko 25mm f1.2 Pro lens and Haida Nanopro 2-5 stop variable ND filter. Base exposure was 25mm | f1.2 | ISO3200 | 1/60th.
Development: The initial exposures were RAW processed using DxO PhotoLab 4 with exposure blending handled by Nik HDR Efex Pro. The combined image was then processed in On1 Photo RAW 2021 culminating with a roundtrip to Nik Silver Efex Pro and blending back in using On1 Layers.
From wikipedia: "Concrete Central was built between 1915 and 1917 at the height of World War I. Due to its being the largest grain elevator in the world and concerns about German sabotage, Concrete Central's method of construction was top secret. The facility was utilized for grain storage until 1966. Concrete Central stretches along the Buffalo River for almost a quarter of a mile and was the largest transfer elevator in the world at the time of its completion in 1917.[2] It is also the largest elevator ever built in the Buffalo area. When in operation, it had the capacity to handle a total of 4.5 million US bushels (160,000 m3) of grain. The elevator allowed crews to load and unload 20 railroad cars an hour, and three marine legs along the Buffalo River side could load and unload three massive lake freighters at one time."
