Feeling the pollution in this one, lack of color makes it feel even dirtier, nice job

I like this photograph and I think it certainly shouts "Pollution"
Nice job!

I laughed at the irony of this photo. It displays a finest lack of pollution. Oh the amazing things in Iceland.

This picture certainly meets the challenges criteria. I also like the fact that it appears there are some mountains in the background, but the pollution is blocking my view. Nice shot.

The amount of steam coming from the plant is very neat, gives a very myseterious feel. While the colors are all the same, you dont lose any of the picture.

Now that's pollution. Is that naturally occuring mist at the bottom?

Nice capture, goes well with the challenge. Good luck.

A bit grainy. I would like to either see more of the dark foreground if it is important or have it gone so it doesn't distract.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/13/2008 01:43:01 PM
Crowded. but i like the whitish tone
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/13/2008 09:40:12 AM
good shot i like the idea and all the smoke
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/13/2008 09:32:47 AM
Now thats a lot of pollution. nice perspective as well
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/13/2008 09:27:53 AM
this is good, but it would have been great in black and white with higher contrast.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/13/2008 09:17:05 AM
i really wish that you had a parallel foreground to background
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/12/2008 11:30:51 PM
Lots of smog,steam and pollution but not much else to give the image impact, definately meets the challenge.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/12/2008 09:28:58 PM
I think that with some extra processing to reveal more of the tones, this could be a very impressive shot.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/12/2008 04:03:28 PM
