This was one of my top ones too. Great observation, drama and social comment.

One of my top pics for this challenge - oddly, all three were from favourite photographers (just shows that I'm right to have selected them). Pretty good scoring and placing, especially for a non-shiny-happy photo on dpc.

Excellent photojournalistic type photo. Good definition in the smoke and I like the way the towers are engulfed. Good find and great shot 9

Great concept! I can relate to that well since I live in Los Angeles and we have terrible smog problems. The only issue I have with this entry is compression. It is most present on the second smaller burn-off stack. It seems a bit blurry and pixelated.

Not the great looking shot in terms of visually appealing but very powerful message & environmentally conscience. 9!

This is a beautifully disgusting picture! Looks like the chemical coast - Port of Houston area, which is close to where I am from. Definitely feelings of remorse, disgust, hate, disreguard, and disrespect are emenating from the excellent capture. Nice job!! Good luck!

Good shot...just has a good mood and keeps the eye moving. Well done. Great timing.

I dont' think you're making enough of a link to industry here as all I see are towers and I'm not sure they by themselves are symbolic of industry. Would have preferred more of a wide angle shot to see that indeed the smoke does come from some kind of industrial processing. Also, the glare in the upper left is distracting. I certainly like your message, though.

unfortunate and true. as hideous as this is, you have captured it well.

You're lucky that the challenge directions didn't specify 'things that go WELL together'. This is a very effective moralistic photograph. Well done. 9
