Electric City Lightning
Lens: Pentax-DFA 100/2.8 WR Camera: K30 Photo Location: Great Falls, MT ISO: 400 Shutter Speed: Above 6s Aperture: F11 
Posted By: ToyTank, 06-13-2014, 07:51 PM

I took this last night in Great Falls, MT. The complex is "smelterville" I believe it's now a refinery. I see one spot I need to remove, but the other "spots" are actually birds when viewed full size. Great Falls is known as "Electric City"

Thank you everyone, IMO one of my better images. Work had been just about all consuming for the last couple months, and this image really has me motivated to find time to shoot and try and improve my techniques again.
