symphonie en gris très bien composée,

bravo Vlad,

dd, ile de la Réunion

I like the lead-in line from the road on the right, a nicely composed shot. Has a bleak, Chernobyl-like almost post apocalyptic feel to it. I find it hard to define the exact appeal, but I do like this shot.

Hello Vlad,
Beautiful colours and great composition. I like your photo very much.
Best wishes,
Achim

Hello Vlad,
The smoke coming out of the industrial chimneys appears to have reached the clouds. A fine composition which makes me think about its environmental impact. Best regards..

Wow, what a gloomy, grey, moody shot! Well seen and taken, and nicely composed shot.
Have a nice weekend Vlad.

Hi Vlad, the road is a good lead-in, I love all the tones, the space and depth in this image, which could have been 'depressive'... but isn't!
Thanx, M, (*_*)

dear Vlad,
this depressed air there is impressive,
rather wasted field, gray heavy cloud, lone stack with tired smoke,
and the road with nothing,,,all make ruined perspective.
but in this width and depth, I can find one tender will of the nature.
thank you for your excellent shot,
Akihisa

Hi vlad

I think this one is the stronger of the 2 shots, & the frame is better too. I like the linear perspective of the road appearing to terminate in the lake. The minimalist colours woek well here also. Tfs!

This is "gloomily" beautiful, Vlad. Your photo conveys a deep sense of desolation. It shows many interesting details that contribute to the dark mood of this landscape, but nevertheless our attention is drawn to the gloomiest of all elements: the power plant.
Strong work...
TFS & kind regards,
Erik
