    Seb, I enjoy your muted yet slightly saturated colors and perspective throughout this factory series.

    Re: The oven

    I think it's another great addition to your series.
    I like the way that the perspective of the shot takes my eyes to the right while the oven takes me back to the left and deep in to the darkness of it. Very well caputered and I also like the colours here. I feel like I can almost imagine this place now with you sharing so many great shots of it.

    Seb, I also feel this is a very strong addition to your series. I like the framing here, with the door below, although close, to the center of the frame. I like the space you have let remain on the left side. The only thing that I can see from this is the highlights being slightly blown away. I see this alot from digital cameras, and it seems that shooting with -ev compensations, and then bringing out shadows later is an effective method of compensating. As in your other shot with the pipes, you had a slightly reduced exposure on the last post and it seemed more effective aside from the color.
    Great work, Seb
    please do not edit and repost my photos

    Thanks guys,

    Tuna, thanks, I too like the colors

    Leels, thanks! hopefully, I think that I can put out a few more shots for this series. I gotta see what's left from that session...

    Gary, You are probably right. Highlights may kickly loose details at some point when shooting with a digital. It can be delicate in situations where there is a large dynamic range.

    regards

    Re: The oven

    Hi Seb...my very small complaint is the border. I think it's a little thicker than it should be, but I have no qualms with the picture itself. John
