    This is just right , Seb. Exposure looks great and I like your composition. Also, the deep DOF really brings the eye towards the rear to explore the many interesting details. Very good addition to your series.

    Re: Industrial landscape

    What a wonderful shot! I agree with Gary. And I love the diagonal placement (I'm all about triangles!).

    I also like how the only "real" color is the red door at the back. It really does draw the eye through the image.

    Wonderfull,

    One extremely minor comment - can't decide if the beer can is distracting or not.

    Really nice Seb. I like the pools of light and the way the perspective pulls you in.

    Re: Industrial landscape

    Seb it would appear that you and I share a similar train of thought right now. The wide DOF, the lonely industrial spaces, concrete etc.

    The shot is great, I'd like to see a large print of it.

    Great detail throughout Seb especially in the roof space with all those metal trusses. Atmosphere of abandonment well captured.

    Re: Industrial landscape

    Thank you everyone for the great response. I am pleased to see that my enthusiasm toward the subject is contagious!

    Gary: Thank you for your support as always.

    Dbutler: The colors do come out in an unusual way. I guess that it have a lot to do with how the light enter the building by the various holes in the roof, creating warmer luminous spots and darker/colder areas.

    Roger: Thanks. I have been wondering if I should clone out the can or not but I am not that enthusiastic about manipulations so I ended up leaving it as it was.

    Chunk: Thanks for the feedback!

    AntLockyer: You know what they say, great minds think alike lol...

    Tom: Thanks a lot.

    Re: Industrial landscape

    The can is in my view an important part of the scene, nothing should be removed, that is what you saw.
