And this is what they say about it:
The Corus steelworks in IJmuiden is situated within the city limits of Heemskerk, Beverwijk and Velsen.

The Company takes social responsibility seriously and aims to be a good neighbour, reducing as far as possible the impact of environmental pollution. Corus is also conscious of the hazardous nature of steel manufacturing processes and together with DSM Agro and Hoek Looos, two companies who share the IJmuiden site, Corus works to minimise potential risks.

In addition Corus actively works to improve the quality of life in for its neighbours and participates in the community through support for educational, cultural, social and sporting activities, and groups seeking to stimulate local and regional business activity and employment.

Hi Ruud, the processing done gives the pic a bit of a painting feel and creates a wonderworld from a science fiction story. Well done!

Hi Ruud,
this looks a little dramatic, out of this world or in the year 2099 perhaps.
Also looks like it was melting very strong, we have to think about the future of our nature!!!
OK, you gave some strong colours, but here we see the bad things it the air so well.
Thank you very much, very impressive.
Have a wonderful weekend, bye

Hello Ruud,
Surreal but interesting! Lots of interesting details... I like those two iron arches in front, to balance the guy to the left side... Good colour management, nice details

Wat een power hier Ruud; machtig in vies-, giftigheid en ook drama; ik stel me de jongeman voor die hier trots naar zijn vaders fabrieken staat te kijken; welk een 'perspectief' (alweer een homonym).
Een waarschuwende foto; je note is voor mij cynisch als ik 'm met de foto moet combineren.

Mooi werk!

Ruud, this one is incredible. Not only because of the superb level of photography you present us here, but also because of the strong message which you communicate through it. Human and Nature. What an appropriate title.
My compliments,

Shelly.

Hallo Ruud. Een voor mij bekent gezicht mooi ingekleurd en goed weergegeven wat helaas niet weg te denken is uit deze omgeving.

Great shot,Ruud! The man on the left side gives a very good perspective to this picture! Very well composed and great notes! TFS! Michel

Excellent image and great PP work. There is a certain mood created, that makes the scene very dynamic. As always very artistic and creative!

I really don't know how you managed the colours and the posterlike effect on this one. I see from your gallery that you are good at using paintbrush and other scripts and filters, but this one is special. I could wish for it to be four times larger. The person is a lovely special touch.

Good picture to let see us how little the border is between nature and bad nature things. There is a mood I like in this picture.

Best regards,

Don

P.S.: did you received my mail last weekend?

Another lovely shot. Great composition and point of view. Well done.
