Can't complain being compared to Evans, Thanks.

Abandoned metalwork site, the former Malmar factory, Bijgaardepark, Gent, Flanders, Belgium.
Between the 13th and the 16th century, it was a bee yard belonging to the Saint Bavo's abby, then it slowly evolved into an industrial site (begun during the first industrial revolution), and had been neglected when the Malmar closed.

Nice, really like the colors on this one. Reminded me of one I took awhile back while touring the Kauai Coffee Estate.

While we are in the industry, one of the most fascinating subjects in my career, some views of a power plant:

I love the juxtaposition of the monochromatic natural world background and the bright, shiny, and colorful processing plant and how the vertical towers contrast with the horizontal mountains. Fantastic!

Thanks Stephen ! It combines my two favorite subjects - mountains and smokestacks. I LOVE smokestacks

When I was growing up in the North Eat of England in a town where fishing was one of the main industries this building was a fish smoke house where different fish were 'cured' and smoked from oak wood shavings. A good while after it went out of use it was bought by a local architect and converted into his offices and home. The glass windows are all recycled Ford Transit van windscreens giving his and his family an unequalled viewpoint out over the moth of the River Tyne

That’s a really interesting window system, looks like an insects compound eye.

Another from the North East of England. This is known as the 'Causey Arch' situated in County Durham. Built sometime between 1724 and 1726 (The actual date varies depending where you look). by a local stone mason called Ralph Wood. It was constructed to replace a wooden bridge which collapsed before it was even used. It was designed for taking coal wagons using wooden rails and horse-drawn carts known as 'Chaldrons' each holding about 1.5 to 2 tons from a nearby coal mine down to the River Tyne to be taken by sailing vessel to London and elsewhere.
At the time it was built it was the longest single span stone bridge built anywhere in the world, being approximately 110 feet from buttress to buttress and around 80 feet above the River Team below.
It was claimed that Ralph Wood committed suicide because of worry that the bridge would collapse with the weight it was to carry and supposedly jumped to his death in to the gorge. However there are no records of a body being recovered and the bill for the construction was paid to him a few months later. (About £3500)

This was taken in November 2022 when the leaves were off the trees otherwise it can hardly be seen

The length was only exceeded several years later by a bridge in South Wales that had a span 10 feet wider but was only 15 feet above a river
