Thank you Larry. I can't say I was entirely conscious of symmetry but as I was driving by this thing just jumped at me from some distance away. I only took two shots and this one expressed the size with very little cropping. When I framed it in camera I did want to include the road to give it a sense of place.

It works well in B&W. I was just discussing symmetry and asymmetry with someone so I particularly appreciate the way this image playw sith both. The main silo is nearly, but not quite perfectly cetnered, but there is also a lot of asymmetry in the photo too. Very well done. >On 1/6/2012 3:09 PM, Don Guthrie wrote: > This not the first picture I took with my new K-5 but is from the > second day.
