Great shot, got the Sun angle perfect.
The place does not look very populated but there are 3 churches visible; Or are they something else?
 
Good IR. This demonstrates some reasons I like the Mamiya TLRs. As a TLR, you don't have to look through the super-dark IR filter to frame and focus the image. You can also use a wide-angle lens, which few TLRs can do.

Thank You, this is why I primarily dedicate the C330 to infrared work even though I'm not particularly fond of the 6x6 format.

I confess to looking up Admiral. I presume there were more buildings at one time.

It's hard for someone who grew up in Europe to really get their head around the expanse of this part of the world. I guess people come and go, but that sky goes on forever.

Yes, a few buildings behind me. There are still a few people who call this place home, but not much going on so to speak. I enjoy visiting ghost towns or semi-ghost towns and one can wonder what things must have been like in the past. Anyway, I try in my humble way to document some of the slipping away or quieter prairie places.

Absolutely right Bob.
In 50 or 100 years people will look around and wonder what places used to be like.
Its almost - hiding in plain sight.
Can you donate some of these prints to a museum ?

At some point I would be honoured and grateful if the Saskatchewan Archives, collectors/galleries/museums or corporations would sponsor my years of dedication to preserve these soon to be historical documents.

On Saturday I was fortunate enough to be able to look at Bob's 16x20 print of this - it was a real pleasure!
I still like my title suggestion though Bob :smile:.
