    Plant Hammond

    I took this with the 50-200mm. Not much processing. Crop and one of the lights was blown so I replaced the bulb.LOL

    The stacks need to be vertical and maybe not so centered. I like the timed smoke.

    As in vertical you mean leveled? I skewed them slightly. I hope this helped? My eyeball needs calibrated.LOL

    Nice one Greg. I don't like what the shutter speed has done to the smoke; makes it look as though it is being forced out. Other than that though I like it. The trees have framed it well, so the stacks being sort of central is not really an issue.
    Maybe that light on the hillside behind could go as there are enough light spots on the stacks; I find it a little distracting. Nice exposure all round too.

    Thanks Tom, I have cloned the light. That is a cell tower by the way.
