A beautiful building, standing like a rocket in the landscape. If any critique at all, I would like a little bit more ground beneath the building by placing the camera lower. You have room enough at the top.
 
I really like this image - great clouds and light at work here. Reminds me of home, even though our grain elevator got demolished years ago. A quick google search indicates that it might be the one near Ashton, Idaho. Everything looks the same, except yours has a road right to the left of it. Of course, that could be new, this photo is from 2011.
 
Beautiful detail, really beautiful sky. As an old farm boy, I really love this. I do agree with The Toad Men, I would like to see a little more space at the bottom.
 
Globe Mills div of Pillsbury is located in the area of Moscow Idaho so somewhere in that area. The one listed above looks right.
 
Mooseontheloose shoots & scores -- that tip put me on the right track, and got me thinking about other road trips. A quick e-mail to the Ashton Chamber of Commerce confirmed that the elevator is in Lamont, Idaho, very near Ashton. Thanks everyone, especially Mooseontheloose! Even though it wasn't the trip I thought, the camera info is correct: the 60mm Schneider was my widest lens for years.
