Early Morning at International Paper

This paper mill in Springfield was for a lot of years owned by Weyerhaeuser Timber Company. Weyerhaeuser built the mill in 1948 and sold it to International Paper in 2008. So it has been here a good long time. Today the mill has about 260 employees. Last year, the mill was given a $100 million upgrade with the installation of two pieces of heavy equipment to replace obsolete machines. It looks more attractive in the dark when all the lights are on, I think.

Eye of the beholder. Hope they are strictly controlling their emissions, such as dioxin !

Interesting capture! Well exposed.

Cool shot during the blue hour!

Very cool shot of it, Vern. I love seeing the billows of steam with their touches of pink against the still dark sky.

Beautiful exposure. It's great to see some industry is alive and well. V

It most likely DOES look better in the dark!

Hey Vern, I remember when the mill was Weyerhauser and at times it put out quite a stench. Is it any better?
Nice capture, good work.

Lovely scene. No doubt much better looking than in daylight.
joseantonio10-Apr-2017 16:27
lovely to see it still at work and with those jobs must be great for the area.V.

the mill is huge...the light on the rising smoke adds a lovely colour tint...fine work..

Wonderful low-light result with the D500

Impressive capture of this paper mill with the night light and steam rising.

The D500 handled ISO 8000 quite well!

The lights do help in the inky darkness Vern v

Looks like this place never sleeps, neat effect in the low light.
