Thanks for all of the great comments. I was out and about trying to find an open nursery to do some macro and couldn't find any interesting plants to shoot. So as I was headed down the road I saw these oil towers, and I've always wanted a cool shot of them because I really like how powerful and gritty industrial photos can be. So I took a few and really like the way this one turned out. That's the reason I do the DP challenge, as a way to force myself to get off my lazy butt and find things to collect with my camera.
AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME re the GRAPHIC DESIGN STYLE in this DRAMATIC BLACK AND WHITE photo.
The repeated PATTERNS work a treat for my eyes.....
REPETITION ALSO WORKS WELL FOR ME, but most of all THE COMPOSITION and GRAPHIC DESIGN is a BOLD BLACK AND WHITE IMAGE thats a STRONG SHERPET STATEMENT in my eyes.
AWESOME THANK YOU for entering this very STRIKING DRAMATIC image

Gorgeous image. I love the contrast and the sweeping line of the stairs. Great perspective and rhythm. I wish this had been in the Free Study, because, I don't recognize this as being the sort of image Sherpet would create. It seems too cold, both in subject matter and emotion.
It will be interesting to see how the challenge theme factors in, but regardless, I think this is a strong composition. The staircase at left is fantastic! Leads the viewer into the tank farm - well done!
