Mill | 2018
Hermann Mills, Missouri in 2017.
7.5x8.5 Ilford Matte RC Paper
I arrived in St. Louis earlier than expected for one of my best friends' wedding, deciding to take a small road trip to a few river towns. Hermann sits quietly on the Missouri River, but I have to assume it wasn't always that way. The mill stood out as I walked past it multiple times to get to and from the parked rental car. It was peaceful now, but I wonder what it was like 100 years ago when the river was the main thoroughfare to town.
