Welcome to Timeline Photos. A few years back I started peeking around my archives in search of some of the first photographs I had taken. Here records my quest into better understanding my long term love of camera and experiencing the world with it in hand. All photos appear in chronological order hopefully revealing an evolution of how I see and what moves me to speak with light.

Meet the silos


  
 




 








December 22, 2011, 5:00 AM:

Meet the silos that sit on the farm property I like to explore.  Tonight I went through my photo archives looking for images to print for gifts.  I came across this 10/22 set, and in it were a good number of photographs of the silos.  Since I started visiting the farm last Spring,  I had known they that were on the property, and I'd explore them from the exterior taking a few shots.  For whatever reason I always delayed sharing them in my blog.  There's something special about these abandoned structures, and I suppose I felt they deserved their own post. 

I remember this visit well as I was exploring the property for a long time that morning.  This was the first time I was brave enough to stick my head completely inside the silo opening to look inside.  I was always afraid that someone was going to jump at me to freak me out.  I was ready for a return scream this time which helped me just go for it.  I still hesitate when peeking in, always prepared, and one day I definitely want to climb inside.
  
I find it interesting that these abandoned silos are in the plans to be saved by the developers of the property.  Supposedly there will be a "silo park" in an area of the homes and open space.

  1. Great pix, but it's hard to imagine a silo park, as the first two pictures remind me of Wuthering Heights.

  2. Hello Victoria. It's good to see you checking in. There will have to be a lot of clearing and structural support needed to get these into shape to be part of public/private space. I'm guessing that it will be some time before we know.
