Collinsville, Again

[KarinaB1970]

I wanted to take a ride up and see what winter brings to the old Collins Co. Axe Factory. Unfortunately I got up there later than I had wanted and the sky had begun to cloud up and the sun begin to lower. Here is one shot I took, similar to my fall shot but not quite the same angle. No way was I hopping the fence and walking out on the wall that juts out into the freezing waters!! I think I will wait for a good thaw ;)

Nice shot, Karina. :) Looks deceivingly peaceful. ;)

Here's a view looking back at your shooting position. I was standing at the bottom of the near corner of the factory at the edge of the river.

And here is another from the same position looking up at the forebay.

Always a new angle at the Collins Co. :cool:
