Australia Whyalla Town and Steel Processing Factory

            Whyalla is the third most populous city in the Australian state of South Australia after Adelaide and Mount Gambier. At June 2015 Whyalla had an estimated urban population of 22,654.It is a seaport located on the east coast of the Eyre Peninsula. The town is known as the "Steel City" due to its integrated steelworks and shipbuilding heritage. The port of Whyalla has been exporting iron ore since 1903.

This view is taking off Hummock Hill, a World War II post which was established to oversee and protect the chores. 

The burned steel reddish dust color landing over many buildings give this city a unique style and signature. I was lucky to have taken a moment to visit Hummock Hill in my pass-through through the town. The factory sight was simply awesome!
