Wired

This is a shot of wire that is being readied for recycling at Advantage Metals, a metal recycling facility in Kansas City. I toured it at the end of the day today and hope to return for some industrial shots. This wire, however, caught my attention as it looks more like Rapunzel’s hair from the old children’s story. But, it is indeed wire awaiting the shredding machine. People think of Kansas as rural and agricultural, which it is, but on the Kansas side of Kansas City, it has a real urban, gritty, industrial feel to it.

Some of the men I met at Advantage Metal Recycling (See my prior posts for the business of Advantage) struck me as having the look of a lifetime of hard work and experiences – much the way Jerry Jeff Walker described Bo Jangles in his famous song. Here is one of those gentlemen; I decided to try to have his face fade into shadows and blend with the mounds of metal to be recycled in the background.
