This shot was taken in Minneola, KS around 5 pm. I had left Denver, CO on my way to a ranch just outside Woodward, OK to shoot with a cowgirl I had met 5 years ago & could not get my travel plans to be in Woodward at proper time of day. So I was driving & while passing through Minneola I noticed 3 old grain elevators off to my left. I thought I really would like to shoot them but the sun was headed west and it was getting late plus I had another 2 hours driving time before I got to Woodward. Knowing I wanted to scout a while to locate the right spot to work and then get me & Bobbie back on site I decided to press on. I had driven past the elevators & I knew that I would not be real happy if I did not stop & shoot. So I turned around & grabbed a camera & shot two of the 3 elevators for 20 minutes, these are two of them.

Gear: Canon professional digital camera, 16-35 f2.8 Canon Zoom lens 100 ISO and then processed using Photoshop CS3 and using the Adobe RAW converter. I then converted the color image to B&W.
