Most industries proudly blazon their name across their property. That lack of branding is probably why this graphical composition, enhanced by the stark winter light, appeals to me.

Although the trains are still running, I’ve no idea whether these old signals at Ballarat, Victoria, are still in use. Maybe they are just striking relics from the railway’s heydays.
