Photo ops

 


Due to our reawakened interest in photography, we have been cruisining around documenting various things around our neighborhood. A few weeks ago we popped out and went to NW Natural gas old headquarters, which have been derelict for a long time. After a bit of us futzing about, a guard came out and I thought we would be in trouble. But no, he was just bored and wanted a chat. Apparently the building was full of asbestos and they had to vacate it after a bunch of people got really sick. Now it is slated to get torn down, and the site is becoming a biodiesel plant. That is cool, I guess, even if it is sad that the building is going to go away. Interestingly the pictures we shot of the building did not turn out that great, but Amelia took some meta-pictures documenting the process that turned out quite nicely.
