On the left (not seen here, of course) is the great expanse of the Columbia River. On the right are old tracks and a weathered building I particularly like. Between them is the River Walk, surfaced in blacktop and much-used on a nice day like this.
The structure is so close to the railway track. It must shake badly if a train passes by. I love the composition of the shot and the color of the rust!
Wonderful photo, Sheryl! This is a bit different from what I've seen of Astoria in the past, but I love it...weathered and full of character! And railroad tracks always cast a spell on me...I get glassy-eyed and immediately look around for a camera!

Looks like a a great place for a walk.
ReplyDeleteI love the old buildings too and wonder about the stories they could tell. MB
ReplyDeleteIt's nice to have a view of the other side. I am sure that this River Walk is lovely.
ReplyDeleteI would love to take a walk on this side too. I really like the "old abandoned" feel.

ReplyDeleteGreat shot Sheryl. This is about as industrial and "used up" as you've shown us. I really like it.
ReplyDeleteVery nice and it looks like the place where I was taking pictures on Sunday.
ReplyDeleteA memory off days past. I wish we could still see how it was used and watch a locomotive rumble by!
