This is a self portrait I did while making some photograps of the building in the background. I recently moved to Denmark and this powerplant supplies power to my new home town Århus.
I converted this photo into a 16bit TIFF file using capture shop. I then cropped in a bit and converted it to B&W with channel mixer in photoshop, then I adjusted the contrast with a few curves with differant masks.
This is my fyrst challange in a while, I would really like to take part in more challenges in the future.

Technical: Focus and dept of field are excellent. Brightness and contrast are done very well. Color/saturation/hue N/A
Reaction: I really like this picture and I am surprised it did not do better. Centering yourself in the power lines works. Looks like rays of energy to me. The power plant in the background contrasts well with the parka, and it look on the subjects face. He really looks cold, and/or angry. This image could work well for a group protesting industry.
Overall and excellent photo that I believe was overlooked in the voting.
