The big old water tower at the Missouri Mines. I forgot I had taken this one. Look at that oil-rubbed bronze color. Love it. Something bright, old, and simple for Saturday, huh? Have a great day! (I would love for you to come back to visit, so please SUBSCRIBE using one of the buttons […]

One last parting shot of the Missouri Mines historic site! (I would love for you to come back to visit, so please SUBSCRIBE using one of the buttons I have up there at the top on the left. And be sure to find me on Facebook for behind the scenes stuff and general goofiness. I’m […]
I hope that my technical post title didn’t discourage. I know, I know – I’m an expert on all these old things. This appears to be a cool-looking, old-timey, steampunkish machine thingy. I realize that’s highly technical jargon, but, don’t worry, there won’t be a quiz. 😛 This appears to be some sort of power […]
I love details. I love this door. I love this old light. I love the textured old brick. I could have done an entire booklet on just details from the Missouri Mine site alone. (I would love for you to come back to visit, so please SUBSCRIBE using one of the buttons I have up […]
A couple of alternate shots I took of the mine complex, with different finishes. You’re really kind of away from everything else, as the mine was on the outskirts of the small town, and there were next to no visitors the day we were there. It was kind of like the set of Mad Max […]

While the scale of the buildings at sites like the Missouri Mines historical site are always awe-inspiring, one of my favorite things is to find the little details that we just don’t have in modern buildings today. Like this nifty exterior lamp on the side of one of the mining buildings. I love the swirly […]
Hey, there! Happy Monday! Hope you had a great weekend! This weekend, The Hubs and I, along with Silent Jay, took a trip out to visit the Missouri Mines historic site. I’d never been there before, so I was eager to see what was there. And hopefully, get some good pictures! See if you can spot Silent Jay […]
I got to playing with this one and thought it lent itself well to an abstract, which is now my current obsession. LOL This is a detail of the Climatron here in the St. Louis Botanical Gardens. I think I’m going to go back down there and get some more pix to play with. Since […]
So, I’m in a bit of an artsy mood and I decided to pull out some of my old shots that I never did much with. This is one I decided to make an abstract. Can you guess what it is? Heh, it’s a detail of the exposed corner of a staircase at the St. […]
