Bill Gallagher Photography<p>Dixon Grain Elevator</p><p>Grain elevators to me are like old boats. They seem to develop their own unique look and character as they age and I don't think any two are the same.<br>So I purchased a new lens for my camera and I wanted to give a try. This grain elevator is roughly 20 miles from my home and I always wanted to explore the area and the elevator itself.<br><a href="https://pixels.com/featured/dixon-grain-elevator-bill-gallagher.html" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">pixels.com/featured/dixon-grai</span><span class="invisible">n-elevator-bill-gallagher.html</span></a><br><a href="https://socel.net/tags/DixonGrainElevator" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>DixonGrainElevator</span></a> <a href="https://socel.net/tags/BillGallagherPhotography" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>BillGallagherPhotography</span></a> <a href="https://socel.net/tags/Dixon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Dixon</span></a> <a href="https://socel.net/tags/GrainElevator" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>GrainElevator</span></a> <a href="https://socel.net/tags/Sunrise" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Sunrise</span></a> <a href="https://socel.net/tags/Morning" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Morning</span></a> <a href="https://socel.net/tags/BuyIntoArt" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>BuyIntoArt</span></a> <a href="https://socel.net/tags/AYearForArt" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>AYearForArt</span></a></p>

W. Morgan SmithOne of the sites visited today on the scavenger hunt was a collection of grain elevators now referred to as Silo City. In the background here is the "Marine "A" Elevator" which is currently vacant (in keeping with the challenge theme) though is sometimes the setting for concerts and spoken word presentations. Other elevators at Silo City are in active use storing grain, while others were just converted into apartments and offices.

An image from 2021 that I haven’t had a chance to share yet. It is also one of my first aerial images.

I caught a really nice perspective of the storm clouds coming into Big Valley on a warm June day!

How does it look?

Love the Pioneer Grain Elevator in Nanton, Alberta because
1) There isn’t very many Pioneer elevators left in Alberta or Western Canada for that matter and
2) it looks pretty cool contrasted against the storm clouded skies!

Farming can be financially risky. One farmer having trouble brought in a load of grain to sell, between Christmas and New Year's.

It was -40º outside.

When he started to lift the box on his grain truck, it stuck part-way because the hydraulic oil was near-solid.

Even the electric motor to run the elevator lift belt didn't work until we warmed it up.

We shovelled the grain off by hand. Truck was stuck there until it warmed a little.

Luckily, nobody else came in.
