Jon - I am likely your 'landscape' work lately. You appear to be finding the good light as displayed by the lovely play that the sunlight has with the water and clouds and smoke/steam from the factory. it got a 7 from me during voting.

Oh, I DEFINITELY see the beauty in this photo! I LOVE industrial photos like this so much. I pass a cement factory on my way home from work, and every day, I think about stopping, or coming back when it is lit up to take photos of it. This one is particularly beautiful because it is sunset, and there is still plenty of detail in the silhouette.

I really don't understand the 5.1! You got so robbed :( I hate it when that happens.

Consider me lost on your title Jon lol. I guess this is one of those things that can have so many different interpretations. The colortone is perfect for this scene. I also like the strong silhouettes - the shapes of the buildings really jump out at ya.

As often, I am mystified by the scores photos receive here. Really love your composition and the tones you chose. Great photo, Jon - definitely deserving more than a 5.1.
