Nice capture. Can't wait to see the exposure specifics. As you may know I did quite well with a similar shot recently. Love these types of night shots.
Yours

This just feels too over-edited to me.

Interesting how the wind is blowing the steam in so many different directions. Good catch.

This is technically excellent. Crisp and interesting. The long exposure was a great choice and necessary of course. Good luck!

almost looks like something out of a Tim Burton movie.... really cool.

That looks like something out of a comic book movie or something. IT's neat!

The colors are awesome, and I love the movement in the smoke.

Very clean and nicely cropped but the bottom right corner detracts a little from the over all image (my opinion). I like the feel and color.

Have we seen these towers before in a challenge? :-)
 05/05/2005 07:38:02 PM
Wow, looks like the winner of the "Three" challenge and just as good

Looks good

I really like the time lapse of the smoke and even the windows aren't over exposed.

Interesting photo. It looks almost evil, which any paper mill that is running late at night should be considered evil.

A beautiful and succesful photo. I think a little improvement would be achieved if those sparkling lighs would be cropped out.

Cool shot, a winner. Hope you do well with this one.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Very cool! I love how smoke looks with long exposures, you captured it perfectly! Great job!
  Photographer found comment helpful.

That's Good Man! ;-) The exposure is much better than what I'm seeing in this challenge. The smoke in different direction gives it that weird unique appeal like in kids stories where buildings are given a personnality by doing things like no other, making it a live character. Good luck!

Pink Floyd has returned! I don't know why I said that, but it is what jumped out at me seeing this photograph. Just reminds me of that group, their music and their album covers. Love the dark sky and the pink smoke. Really cool colors, lighting, in the windows of the factory. Like the star bursts in the left corner. It is all so smooth..... so 10!

Well done, I very much like the surrealistic effect of the long exposure.

very Willy Wonka!

Good Job Great lighting

the composition of this photo really is great....the different elements that make up this photo pull you from one place to another in it...i mean that as a positive...it is very complex

Lovely night shot. Receeding smoke works very well.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Nice shot except for a couple blown pixels you should have cloned out. the smoke/steam is great!

Was it not possible to get more of the building? I think that the colours of the lights in the building are as much a feature of the picture as the plumes of smoke.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 05/03/2005 10:53:51 PM
Nice DOF. I really like the smoke plumes.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

love the steam/smoke
