The tree in the silo

Once in a while we come across something on Flickr that we didn’t even know was a “thing”. It turns out that trees sometimes grow inside of abandoned grain silos, creating a surprising and often beautiful juxtaposition. You can enjoy a whole group dedicated to Trees in Silos, or check out Ken Wolf’s excellent set of Silos around Lawrence, Kansas.
