One of the old steel mills Pittsburgh was noted for. This one is located in Rankin just a hop, skip and jump from my house.

No longer in operation but still a site to see. Someday (they say) that land will be developed...and the steel mill might be kept as a museum. That would be cool.

One of the first pictures I took with the converted Sony P200...OH the clouds that day.

    I used to use the Sony F717 in nightshot mode with a R72 and ND8 filters and found my passion for IR photography needed a dedicated IR camera.
    So now I have 2 converted cameras and it's wonderful.

    Hope this info helps.
