Redstone.
The Redstone Quarry in the village of Redstone, (part of the town if North Conway, NH) has long since been abandoned. Though it’s machinery lives on in my imagination.
Every time I visit this wonderful historic site, hidden deep in the woods, I marvel at the machinery, primitive by today’s standards, used to bring large granite blocks in both pink and green, down from the quarry on the hillside above, turning and polishing them into large granite columns.
This is just a small glimpse of what’s hidden at the quarry. Over time, and many visits, I intend to capture it all.
These are great photos. Perfect for the challenge!
Thank you. Although the quarry closed long before I was born, there is a sense of nostalgia every time I visit.
Beautifully done :)…. one more proof that autumn is the best season for landscape photography 🙂
Thank you Paula! I couldn’t agree more! 😀
Though it may surprise you to know that these were all taken this past spring, when the ground was still littered with last autumns fallen leave, but before things started to “green up.”
😀 Nature is unreliable 😉
Great rust colour! 🙂
Thanks, you gotta love rust!
