The cows were just to my right, looking at me, when I stopped on a dirt road to grab this image. Should there be a hole in that silo? I asked a cow, but was ignored. Happens a lot.

Lines, angles, contrast, light, and shadow create what I think is an interesting photo.

A neighboring town with a very large and closed silo. Love the well ventilated roof.

Now closed, this industrial silo complex impresses with a series of contrasting lines.

Silo Arm

The side of a closed silo complex extends an arm with tattered yellow cloth.  Like a flag of surrender, this yellow cloth has stood unused while it has been battered by the elements.

A long idled train sits as if permanently connected to a once thriving silo.

A slice of an old silo found in a very small town in eastern Colorado. The loose piece was actually flapping in the breeze and is soon to take flight.
