Castlemaine is now a hub for the alternative and the yabbies. The town is surrounded by abandoned goldfield equipment leaving them to rust and decay.

Eso está bien para reciclar. Un beso.
ReplyDeleteThe rust is too corrosive on these items for recycling.
DeleteIt's amazing the equipment was just left behind, I guess they felt they could and no one cared about it or stopped them.
ReplyDeleteI believe the area is protected like a heritage listed zone too. But there is no security in the whole fields whatsoever
DeleteIt is sad to see equipment left behind, make it could be broken apart and recycled. Have a great weekend.
ReplyDeleteWell, steel and bronze are all stolen already. only the useless bits left behind
DeleteHow sad, when you think of all the good things this space could be used for! Like a skateboard park for the kids.
ReplyDeleteThere are probably a lot of mineshafts in the area though
DeletePity that. Nice capture though.
ReplyDeleteThanks. It is kind of rustic to look at.
DeleteSuch a sad sight!
ReplyDeleteCool photo though 👍👍
I'm enjoying the mood, the feelings you evoke in the look of your pictures.
ReplyDeleteCreo que se deberían haber reciclado en lugar de haber dejado así. Eso pasa en todos lugares.
ReplyDeleteSaludos.
Human footprints left everywhere
Deleteunfortunate... they left good equipment
ReplyDeleteAn interesting view of these relics of times past... Thanks for taking part in the "My Sunday Best" meme.
