The river was so beautiful. The trees were sparkling along the banks, and the steam gently rising from the surface of the water. But behind, in the background stood the mill, with clouds of pollution rolling into the air.

I like this "smoke stack" image best of the bunch--I still wonder if most of these are actually just steam, though (as this one appears to be). Either way, this is a well done b/w image 9
there are so many details to look at in this landscape. you did not only captured the smoke well but also included the fog on the water exceptionally well. Reminds me of the ocean on the planet Solaris, from the original/old "Solaris" movie.
Love the black & white medium, just a little too light for my taste. The long leading line of the smog and the mist over the water is beautiful! (until you remember what it is) Good contrast in the "clouds" luckey for you there were no actual clouds to interfere.
