At the beginning of the day, my buddy Fred was excited to pull over and explore the local fertilizer plants with me. 15 hours later, “Hey, there’s a fertilizer plant, let’s go photograph it.” became an inside joke.

Tip: I call it ‘Working The Composition’. When you find something that catches your eye, don’t walk away from the first composition you make. Approach it from different angles, focal lengths, and perspectives. Eventually your subconscious will team up with your conscious self and reward you with an image to be proud of.
Very cool joke!
Love the lines, contrasts, tones and pov…..well composed my friend!
Thanks man! Your comments are always appreciated. I would love to see this image enlarged. I think the power of it would be easier to comprehend. Those silos were huge!
