The light in this is fantastic. Beautiful shot, Alex.

mmm those clouds.... The picture is a little to yellow for me though... However, each to his own.

have to look up the original slide to check the colours. I remember it very yellow though, even the sky was not pure grey.

The warmth of this photo is so lovely(I'm sure it wouldn't have the same effect if the yellowness was gone)! I also especially like the simplicity of the composition. Very nice Alex.

Very nice! I love the clouds and the angle from which you shot the picture!

I missed this one somehow, Alex.

I think the quality of light in this image is gorgeous - warming over a quite stark subject. Delicious! :)

Very pretty light! Lovely.

[Alex]

thanks :)

it appears a bit yellow to me too now, and not enough orange-ish. Maybe the original light was a bit warmer than it appears on the image.

Very nice Alex. The light does look a little yellow, but it's still very lovely.

NIce one Alex. Looks like you had some nice light for this one. Would love to see this place in person.

Thanks! This, by the way, is one of the early examples of industrialisation in England. Not sure about the exact history of the place though.

When I see these types of ruins, I always wonder, what it looked like, when it was finally completed, and fully functional. :scratch:
