Default While Waiting ...

... for a friend to show up for a walk on a VERY cold winter morning, I had a few minutes to take a few shots, something Christmas preparations have kept me from doing much lately. These were taken in a little village called Collinsville, which is right on a river and used to have a huge ax manufacturer, which has since been shut down. All the buildings were part of the factory.

Wow, Martha. Exempliary for just an impromptu walk. I love the building with two windows. Very nice. Great bokeh in the other two as well!! Sorry we haven't seen more from you lately. You've been missed! Must be some spectacular Christmas decorating you're doing!!

The one with the two windows are really great, even the reflections (are those reflections ? ) on the glass look interesting.

Congrats

Wondered where you were Martha. You certainly know how to make a (re) entrance, with shots like these that you just took to while away a few minutes. That No 2 is pretty cool. Have a wonderful Christmas and a big hug to the wonderful Julia, Julia. PAUL

Your welcome Martha, your shots are always a pleasure to view and there is always something to be said about them.

Wonderful pix, Martha. These shots show a wonderful perspective of things overlooked by the vast majority! Love them!

just goes to show that we can always find something to photograph if we look. Really like the reflections in the two windows. Have a great Christmas.
