Close by Drypool Bridge this place produces shotgun cartridges for the entertaining business of slaughtering birds specially reared to be 'sport' for gun toters with rather too much money than sense. The tower is so that molten lead can be sprayed into water from a height so producing lead pellets to further pollute the land. Do I seem a tad down on this place? Well tough.
The Weekend in Black and White is right .here
Doesn't sound like a great reason for that place to exist. However, it does make an awesome photo.
ReplyDeleteKilling birds seems to be a popular thing. Very sad. I only shoot them with my Canon. But you took a fine photo here.
ReplyDeleteA great photo! But, - the building should never have been built!
ReplyDeleteI grew up near a shot tower, but it was disused. This obviously isn't. A fine shot(!) of a rather unappealing building
ReplyDeleteKilling for sport is a sign of ignorance.
ReplyDeleteWilliam, you have a fine eye for black & white.
