We will be making a weekend out of this, come join us at the Woolen Mill on Saturday.
"Abandoned Mill is a Photographer's Dream -- But for How Much Longer?" an article in the Huffington Post recently headlines. Talking with the owner today, Herb said that the roof is in very bad shape. Another article puts the Mill as one of America's top 11 most endangered historic places.
Join Tom and Lisa for awesome details, history, and HDR! We have been here a few times and we can help you with compositions, exposures, creativity, etc.
FYI, almost all of this fee goes directly to the owner for the preservation of the building.
We will be staying at the same hotel (email us for details) Friday night and Saturday night, shooting at the Woolen Mill on Saturday. Our hotel is about 5.5 hours from Hamden CT, ~1 hour from the Woolen Mill and close to the Silk Mill.
