Focus on Life ~ Week 45

Sally Russick of The Studio Sublime is hosting a year long challenge which is... sublime... as you'd expect with such a studio name. The challenge is named 'Focusing on Life' and every week Sally is sending a prompt on what should we focus the following week.

This week I'm a tad late to the party, for unknown reasons (I had the pictures all along... just didn't get to publishing them).

The theme was 'Industrial photography' and I must admit I was a bit stumped at first. I don't like industrial anything; long story - enough to say that where I'm coming from they (the communists) destroyed a perfectly lovely agricultural country to transform it (based on the Marx's and Engels' Manifesto - read it one day, you'll be surprised) in an industrial one.

That too should speak about industrial, as it's really from the beginning of the industrial 'revolution'... a working 'relic' :)
