Old grain silos are an obvious subject of photographic interest, and you can find them in many areas of the country. My wife and I came across this one near Nashville, TN a couple of years ago and we stopped to document it. Naturally, I didn't keep any notes, as this was a casual trip. Anyway, I was trying to figure out more information about it online, but the search results were dominated by news of a mural that was painted on an abandoned silo in west Nashville. My initial reaction was, 'How the hell could we have missed such a huge mural'?
We are not that unobservant, of course, although by now, this old silo could also have been repainted. Kodak XX film, Leica R6.2, 35mm Summicron. Summer light.
