I think this is wonderfully dramatic! The smoke just looks like billowing clouds everywhere. Congratulations!

This is really neat, but a little too softish for my taste...this is only personal opinion however and the image may be perfectly suited to what you had envisioned!
To my eyes, a sharper, grainier look would give this a more Industrious feel. Either way, great capture!
Edit: I just read a comment below that mentioned how the softness of the steam contrasts nicely with the sharpness of the buildings...and you know, I think I've been converted! I would love to see this as a huge print, it would be gorgeous!Message edited by author 2005-11-11 14:00:08.

Stunning, atmospheric, grimy and busy! A worthy 3rd...I thought it would get 1st, it deserved to be Number One, and that Sigma lens rocks!

Thank you!
@mycelium, no, this is not the same building as "a lovely industrial plant". This one here is in Trail, British Columbia, the lovely industrial plant is close to Missoula, Montana (I think the place is called Frenchtown, you can see it driving on I-90, right past Missoula, going West).

This has such a 50's kind of feel to it... like old photos of Pittsburgh back when steel was king around here. I like the "dank" feeling of it... nice work!

This is "busy", even the sky, but I would have liked to see just a wee bit more at the bottom. I can see the "busy" parking lot, but have to really look for it. At first glance I thought it was converted to black and white but do see bits of color here and there. Nice capture
