Another BW processing, for comparison.

yes, now we are talking. Much, much, much better than the color shot

Very good. Nice reflections. (Is that a nuclear plant???)

Hi,
me happy that B & W version looks better solution.
Oog, thank God that no nuclear power (for a small Slovenia "sufficient" is one in Krsko)! It even has thermal power plants fired upon before beginning the update. Look in my photo gallery from the 2010 or 2011 (winter panorama) and you will see the difference. Instead of two small refrigerators are now building a huge block, for even greater environmental pollution.

Love that shot - looks like a Michael Kenna shot, an English photographer - see his website and you'll see many BW like your own. congrats.

Hi,
thanks for the comparison (preliminary) with M. Kenna, whose oeuvre is very respect. My favorite example from the beginning of my dealing with photography, to which they often call J. Hedgecoe, said something like: "Motive we have under our noses and should only be observed before you create a composition." Since I am a great lover of nature, life-time observing, and documenting human contempt thereof. The most interesting and also most sadly, the "photographers" do not distinguish genuine unspoilt beauty of the so-called phenomena such as pink, yellow-green color of the sky and so on.
