While driving back from Pappinbarra we spent the night in Narrandera in the N.S.W. Riverina. I was taken by the beautiful street lighting of the main street but as I went to take my first image they all went out!

Not wanting to miss an opportunity I found a new subject, the Narrandera Flour Mill. While making images the plant night-shift milller John cam over to check out what I was up to. John preceded to tell me all about the mill where he has worked for the last 16 years and which produces 24 tonnes of flour per hour. Everything is shipped out by railway running directly through the site.

The mill is privately owned and one of four belonging to Dick Honan, a leading Australian bio-fuels campaigner and advocate.

Ah, the things you discover in the middle of the night!
