Horton Spheres - Turner Valley Gas Plant

This was the last photograph of the day, taken at the Turner Valley Gas Plant Historic Site.  I shot this on June 15th of 2023, at about 3:00 in the afternoon.  I used my Ebony 4x5 view camera and a 150mm lens.  A #25 Red Filter increased contrast.  This is part of the batch of Ilford HP5 film that I recently processed in 510 Pyro Developer.
These storage tanks were originally used to store compressed natural gas.  We toured the historic site under a photography permit and were escorted by a guide.  He took us around the site, to the areas in which we were permitted, and also explained the operation of the plant.
