This was taken around a product of Montreal’s industrial era, the historic Farine Five Roses mill, which is easily one of my favourite places to explore.

The mill itself was was built by the Ogilvie Flour Mills Company and opened in 1946. It has since had its share of controversy over the years, the most popular being the removal of the word "Flour" from its rooftop sign in 1977 after Bill 101 was passed, in order to nationalize French in Quebec. Signage was no exception.

Very little post-processing done on this picture. Added some clarity using Lightroom and applied a sepia tone gradient map using Photoshop.
