Steel, Coal, Giant Factories and Mills, everything we needed to build this modern world. Fascination of the rusting history.
Come show us what will pass, come show us what has already passed.
We might bei no Bechers, but we might still capture some of the inspiration in the rusty world of historical industrial sites.
I start with Duisburg Meiderich:

Very intriguing scenes, Lars! The aperture of the furnace in the last image reminds me of my old non-Ai 50/2.0 with the 6-blade aperture. 8)

Many thanks Akira - I had a healthy laugh when I read your reply ;D You are a true NG nerd and next time I'm at the glassworks I'll ask them to make a 6-blade aperture in glass for you and if they say .. "what, how ?!" .. I'll reply: "limitation is inspiration" ;)

This horizontal, single-cylinder gas engine runs at the entrance of the Ansom Engine Museum in Poynton (Cheshire, UK). It was made by the National Gas and Oil Engine Company early in the 20th century. (To clarify, gas refers to natural gas and not gasoline.) Alas, I cannot remember where it originally worked but I think that it was at a reservoir.

Thank you Hugh. These engines are at the decommissioned pumping station in Spotswood, now part of the Scienceworks museum.
