Description Essroc Cement Corp. Whitehall, PA

Camera: Nikon n6006
Lens: 35-80mm Nikon AF Nikkor
Film: Fujicolor 400

Negative scanned w/ Canon CanoScan 8800F

Another image from the Essroc Cement Corp. set. Part of a series documenting old & abandoned buildings in the Lehigh Valley.

Very minimum post processing was done. Even at that, nothing was done to enhance or stylize the image. Anything done to it was for the purpose of matching how I saw it in person.

The fading light of a falling sun relates all too well with these buildings.

Another Great Result Brandon! good composition here! helps a lot!
and i love the amount of detail you got on both the sky and the shadow part of the building! nicely done!
But the thing i like the most, is the sunlight on those 2 barrels!(on top) golden light!

Great work!

Thanks for the detailed observation. I also love the light just hanging on those tanks. And how the buildings are covered in dark but there is light on both sides. Which was nothing done on my part, I was an observer who was lucky enough to not only witness this, but capture it.

Nature is kind!
and you do have something to do with it, you were there and you had your camera, in my book that counts
