That's kind of a shame. Weird architecture like that should be preserved for 
posterity.


I bet they could have turned it into condominiums or found some other adaptive 
use.

It's a good photo, even if the sheep don't give a sh*t.

Demolition of the futuristic signal tower at the former goods yard in
Montzen, Belgium. The sheep are suitably unimpressed.

Too much scotch tonight. That should be "Love it". (Curious that the
spell-checker didn't catch it...)
I stand by the Pink Floyd comment, though.

never heard about it. Belgium is FULL of surprises.

I had noticed the scene while driving by, so I stopped at the first

where I had the tower behind the gap in the trees. That's when the sheep
started walking away towards the left. I could move neither forward nor

could be. :-)

Whoa, interesting scene.

If you care about opinions: I feel like there are two subjects and they are
competing with each other a little. I'd love to see a frame where for
example one of the sheep is close to the camera, with the tower in the
background adding al element of weirdness. Or conversely, a composition
where the tower is the main subject, and the sheep are an extra element
somehow (I can't quite imagine how you'd achieve this though!)

Very nice in any case!

I already did.  Years ago, we visited it, hoping to have lunch art the
restaurant there.  It was closed, so after taking a few shots, we visited
"Little Europe" next door.
