| beautiful shot! the sky is very dramatic, and I love the colors and composition. are you sure it's a power station? looks like a grain elevator or something. |

Nice photo! I like the lighting. With the bright background the building is almost only a silhouette. It has enough light to show the rusty surface but not too much so that too much unimportant details in the bottom area are revealed.
Maybe off-centering the subject and moving the camera to the left would have made it even more effective.

Something old. Use your photographic technique to emphasize the age of your subject.
Composition - good
Technical Aspects - good. I'd also like to see a version in B&W with sun in front.
Meets Challenge - probably. Don't confuse old with unused.
Visual Impact / Originality - good

| What little sky is visible is an impressive colour, but the foreground is just too dark. |

| Great subject. Underexposed for the subject. |

| If you angle the camera and posiiton the bulk of the building further right, I think the ramp-like structure would lead the eye into the photo, and create a neat diagonal line. I do like, however, how the wirey structure on the right forms a silouette, and I'm not trying to be a "rule of thirds" stickler, just wondering if the right part of the photo is needed as it really is made up of a lot of non-descript boxy structures. Love the sky. |

| Seems so very dark, were you going for a gloomy effect? I think I should be glad this is an old power station, it looks like a coal burner. Foreground almost completely gone. On the other hand, I like the sky part. 6 Swash |

| this is an interesting scene, but I think that some more light in the foreground would possibly make it stand out more :) - jmsetzler |

| Nice pseudo-silhouette. Great sky. Looks like you had to do a little processing to get the detail visible enough. Works for me. |

| composition is good as is the subject..I think a duller sky would work |

| subject is excellent - exposure detracts from this fine selection |

| Very strong foreground. I think the photo really benefits from the building and related structures being thrown into shadow against the bright cloudy sky. The strong lines of the middle building and the diagonals of the ramp really hold my attention. Great job. |

| I like the way the angles lead my eyes from left ot right, and the colors in the sky are really nice. It is a little dark for me in the foreground, though. I feel like I am missing some nice details. karmat |

| Pity about the darkness at the bottom, perhaps it could have been cropped more. Otherwise I like it very much. |

| The building seems under exposed, and my attention drifts to the sky. This is probably because you shot the shady side, and the camera's auto exposure metered to the sky. You can bump it up a stop or two or use post-processing to correct it. |

| this image looks very dark on my computer, i can barely make out the detail on the right side of the building and the bottom is pretty much black for me. the building was a good subject to pick, but i'm not to thrilled with its placement right in the middle of the shot. maybe more too one side ... -- gr8photos (3) |

| I like the shapes here, but I wish the foreground had been a bit lighter. |

| The subject matter is good, but a better time of day for better lighting is a must... |

| love the dark, overcast sky and mood. nice angle. almost like a painting |

| Nice subject idea. I would have liked it more if the large building wasn't almost dead center, and it is also a little dark for my taste. lhall |

| I like this composition--very strong--good contrasts--nice flash of blue above |

| I love the sky in this. I bet the uncompressed version has great detail on the building. |

| A little dark at the bottom |

| would have been much better had this not been so dark. its between silhouette and detail. |

| its nice, but i find it a little bit too dark. |

| Wow! It's so deep, like the darkness represents the twilight of the coal age! |

Nice, looking at this makes me think of time come and gone. I can also almost see the workers coming and going, and then slowly fading away. It is a little dark, and hard to make out on the bottom, but still overall quite nice.
