This is an interesting piece of a silo that has some odd support arms that appear to have been an add on as they have just kind of ripped through the skinned wall. Like appendages, it gives the illusion that it might soon walk on its own.
Wow…what a stunning amount of different textures, Mike, and so perfect in B/W! Love that what we here in the Midwest call ‘flakeboard’ (layered over the dock) is actually flaking! Those ‘arms’ look more like feed chutes, just about the right height to fill burlap (or faux-burlap, these days) bags…but why do I keep thinking ‘turtle’?
Nice, Mike. I like the black and white in this photo.

Feed chutes! I am sure that is what they are. Good call.

If not walk away, then maybe row away, since they remind me of oars sticking out of an old viking ship. 🙂

Yes they do look like oars!

It does look like the building could up and walk away
