I'm curious to know the English translation of the title. My guess -- "Etched, Oxidized and Moonlit" It's either a toxic waste site or an extraordinarily processed image. It's rewardingly interesting and beautiful in a topsy-turvy way. What I really like is the sputtering sunset or moonrise (or their opposites) on the horizon. Wonderfully creative. If Armageddon looks like this I won't be completely dismayed.
I know he loves his heavy vignetting and with this being a different kind of a photo, I really love the tones to my eyes.. the different shades pulls this out nice.
One of my top favorites and personal spark ribbons
I don't see how this cannot be the work of Jean-Jacques Béguin. Title's a strong hint of course, but so's the gentle sense of humour balanced with the sharp instinct for unexpected beauty. It's elegantly done, and isn't all over with the first minute's contemplation. The light, especially above the horizon, is beautifully painterly. Molte grazie.
This is my commenting pass having voted earlier - I much prefer this on this subsequent visit. Corroded metal meets causal water. Very well constructed. Bumping to a 7.
