Shot a number of years ago in Southern and South Western Saskatchewan. Unfortunately, the elevators, once the sentinels of the prairies, have mostly disappeared.

Nice work, GreyOwl. I enjoyed them all.

Nice ones--I, too, am missing those old elevators--I grew up in a farming community here in Indiana, and they are almost all gone now.

Thank you, jaymatt. Yes, at one time every small town on the prairies had at least one elevator and one just took them for granted. They also made great subjects for photography. Now, when I return for a visit the landscape looks so different. They are like steam locomotives. If you didn't grow up with them, then you can't appreciate the extent of the loss.
