 Thermoelectrical plant in Šoštanj, Slovenia. It's an apocalyptical view when you descend from forest covered mountains into this steam-filled valley.

Edited in Lightroom: adjusted white balance, various tone adjustments, clarity 50%; then in Photoshop: noise ninja (auto, profile image), resized, curves, large-size unsharp masking for scene contrast (25%/40px), noise ninja again just to get rid of color noise in the steam (streght in luminance 0, colors 20, usm 0), shadows/highlights 5%, save in jpeg.

Very good job of portraying a deeper meaning with this photo. Looks a little bit grainy, probably from low light and high ISO? Still worth a higher score in MHO!
