The river was so beautiful. The trees were sparkling along the banks, and the steam gently rising from the surface of the water. But behind, in the background stood the mill, with clouds of pollution rolling into the air.

Nasty but lovely.

Yes, it is beautiful. Stunning photo!

This a really good landscape entry that fits the challenge perfectly. My one personal taste would have left it in color.

the sharpness of your photo makes it stand out

I like this "smoke stack" image best of the bunch--I still wonder if most of these are actually just steam, though (as this one appears to be). Either way, this is a well done b/w image 9

The steam demands your attention in this photo, but what ever is on the water is very distracting. The picture might have been stronger in color.

Great looking shot. A bit flat though. Adding contrast to this would make it spectacular.

i love this, the smoke from the factory really contrasts with the beautiful foggy water
03/14/2008 04:10:54 PM
there are so many details to look at in this landscape. you did not only captured the smoke well but also included the fog on the water exceptionally well. Reminds me of the ocean on the planet Solaris, from the original/old "Solaris" movie.

Photo is nicely laid out and expresses the theme really well.

Love the black & white medium, just a little too light for my taste. The long leading line of the smog and the mist over the water is beautiful! (until you remember what it is) Good contrast in the "clouds" luckey for you there were no actual clouds to interfere.

I like the color scheme
03/13/2008 09:39:53 AM
i like the river.
03/12/2008 06:50:38 AM
The flare is a bit distracting, otherwise great image
03/12/2008 06:48:52 AM
The loooonnng stream of smoke/steam is great in this shot. Works well in b&w.

It is beautiful. I can almost feel the chill in the air.
