On Sunday, February 28, 2010, Janice and I joined other members of the North Alabama Photographers Guild for a photo walk through the old plant where years ago pig iron was made. The property is packed with photography opportunities. There are huge steel pipes, iron furnaces, dark & wet tunnels, turbines, and all sorts of equipment.
See for Yourself
Texture is everywhere. We found plenty of rust, metal, bricks, concrete, nuts, bolts, chains, hooks and even a few sculptures.
Dennis Calvert aka lightpainter provided us with the opportunity to shoot some very interesting images in some very dark places. For Janice and me, it was our first time to make long exposure lightpainting photos. Janice's orb is MUCH better than mine.
FIRE IN THE PIT
VORTEX FROM HELL
A big thanks to my sister Janice Wagnon for inviting me to come along with her on this photography walk. I met members of the North Alabama Photographers Guild, experienced some new photography opportunities and had fun that lasted all week as I processed my images and viewed the images of those who attended.

You've got a killer assortment of shots there, Tonto. You need to post more to flickr and rack up the favs! Thanks for including my orb shot! Can't wait to buy some light sticks and go back to Sloss with you! :)
Very nice work. I need to get in on a local photowalk sometime.
