Texas Day 2: The Forbidden Brewery

Irish Drinking Song:
A long time ago, way back in history,
When all they had to drink was nothing but cups of tea,
Along came a bloke by the name of Charlie Mopps,
And he invented a wonderful drink and he made it out of hops

Chorus:
He ought to have been an Admiral, a Sultan or a King
And to his praises we shall always sing.
Look what he has done for us ( Read more... )

I love. love. Love the refrigeration compressor shot. Looks like it belongs on the cover of a William Gibson novel. Normally I tend to like color better than black and white, but these images just seem to glow.... b & w does retain more of the mystery of this place I think.

Knew you got in somehow!

"retain more of the mystery"
I like the way you said that.

You folks were so confident that I was going to get in, good thing I actually did. I'm going to have to be more careful about announcing missions ahead of time so I don't accidentally announce my first failure.

Some may prefer the black and white, and those were some very nice shots. But I really do enjoy your work in color, it's just more information to absorb. Everything decays better in color!

Very nice work none-the-less.

I do wish you were here in Portland. I've got the perfect place for you but it requires a knowledgeable person to get in. It's an old flour mill. However, the Po-Po have occupied one of the small buildings in the 10 building compound. It sits right next to a river and a two level dock but it's so high I can't get in. There's one other entrance but it requires a rope ladder to get in. All the while, you've got to avoid the cops next door. I'll try to send you some pics of the place if I get a chance. Maybe you can give me some tips or something.

BTW, I love the pics once again.

The right tool for the job is key.

Above all. If you are climbing down...make damn well sure you are going to be able to get back out. Otherwise six months later, the cops might arresting your fleshless skeleton.
