It’s been awhile since the morning light has prompted me stop on the way to the office. You may remember seeing the Radford Incinerator in a previous post. There’s just something about it that grabs my attention.

You are addicted to old structures just like I am LB. I really love the use of selective focus and depth of field in the chain link shot. Have a great weekend.
and I even did it on purpose! Your blogging photographer friend is growing up LOL
I kind of figured you did that on purpose, LOL. As my grandfather would say – bella fotografia
What is it about old abandoned structures? A sense of history, wondering about all the stories that are connected to them?
yes! and that even an incinerator has more architectural interest than much of what we build today!
Well I am like you friend…love to photograph the old!
Definitely! As I rode home this evening (from the Layne Creed Memorial Ride), I had to force myself to keep going and to not stop to photograph all the old barns and farmhouses! I never would have made it home otherwise 🙂
Actually this building isn’t very old, just over sixty years but it does have a
certain interest attached and your photographs have captured these brilliantly 🙂

You are so right! In the great scheme of things … not that old at all.
But a worthy subject matter nonetheless 🙂
I enjoyed viewing your photograph’s and it
is a fascinating building 🙂

awesome…I love old, dilapidated, or abandoned, structures, vehicles, etc., just something about them that appeals to me!
Me too! Someone pointed out that the building isn’t really that old, just 60 years. But even incinerators held more interest than some of the new structures being built.
Don’t you just love old buildings? I posted on one in my hometown that I’d never given a second glance to when I lived there and had so much fun shooting it. Also did an abandoned asylum in Michigan. Something so appealing. Great post!
Oh I need to go find your asylum post! And yes .. the older structures just have so much more character and are much more interesting!
It was in July I think, and maybe listed under nostalgia challenge? It’s in traverse city Michigan and is amazing
Found it! A photographers treat for sure! I loved the Window to the Past photo. I’m glad you looked into the history and found that the facility was different from many at that time. The redevelopment project is awesome, too.
Thanks for seeking it out! Yes, we were really pleased it had a happy ending 🙂
Great shots of an intriguing building. They are fun places to wander about!
Thanks! Someday I’ll need to plan ahead and check it out more …
Every old building has a story to tell. Who walked into this building with their lunch bucket in hand? Did they drive up in an old truck? Looks like a good place for a haunting…it’d be spooky at night. I’m such a chicken O>
I love the image of someone walking with lunch box in hand … the history; the story … exactly!
