Endangered Wood Silo, WisconsinJanuary 3, 2009 @ 9:23am
Here is the latest shot for my Wisconsn silo project. Found this one travelling the backroads. Unfortunately, this interesting old wood silo is not long for the world. It survived the farm being burned by the feds when the farm was raided during the 20's when an illegal brewery operation was discovered, and survived a tornado in the 30's. However, age and a new house being build nearby means the silo is to be torn down this spring. Too bad.

Anyway, based on other comments on previous shots, I am trying to be a little less 'literal' in my shots and trying closer crops.

What a shame, Dan. This silo has such personality, I can't imagine anyone geting rid of it. If I was moving into the area and it was on my land, I would try to find something useful for it so that its life could continue to be useful. I like the details.

Hi Dan,
I like how you cropped to fill the whole frame. The treatment you chose seems appropriate too. It really does seem a shame that this silo has to come down. Thank you for the interesting history lesson.
