A scene from a local construction site. I am not sure why they have all the chains hainging in there, but it reminded me of some scenes from Hellraiser. That, and I liked the composition. The reduced size version loses some detail, so I recommend viewing it full size. Have a great weekend! ------

Love industrial photos! This one is cool. Sometimes the chains are part of some internal pulley system, and this gives them some access. The red-tape is perfect, condsidering all the red tape construction companies have to go through these days!

Good POV and lighting on this unrecognizable object, Kort. That isn't much of a chain they used. BTW, check out the sunflower shot I posted today.

Yup... the red competes with the lid and keeps your eye moving up and down that chain. Way cool.

The red tape gives this a crime scene quality, which fits in with your "Hell-raiser" chain theory ! To me it looks like a modified shipping container, interesting capture and postwork ! ~Cheers~ :o)

I like your quote and it is so true. Interesting shot which we all usually just take for granted and pass by with only a passing glance but you have made it into a work of art with the red accent. Excellent.

It's funny the things you like about a photograph, in this case I'm really drawn to the shadow of the chain, it's very nice!!!!!!! excellent work Kort!!!!
