Is it a HDR-picture? No matter what, the colors are amazing.
May 17, 2012 at 12:34 pm
No, it’s not HDR, Yvonne…all I did was darken it a bit by adding/accenting the shadows…that brought out the colors in the pipe and brick. I’m glad you like it. 🙂

Really like this one – great colours and composition.

A solid and imposing presentation Scott…. Strangely powerful with its rich color and edge blur……it could give me vertigo… 🙂
Very impressive, regards, John.
…….. And it launches me as a follower….. Yippee…..

Thank you, Bonnie! 🙂

That is fantastic. I love the way you have photographed it and edited it. The rust in the cylinder shape is fantastic. So, what is it?

Thank you, Leanne…seemed to jump out at me from the skyline…turned the corner from shooting some photos in an alley and there it was. I’m not sure exactly, other than a smoke-stack or vent, but it is in downtown Salt Lake, removed from any industrial works, so it is probably a relic from earlier times…kind of pretty today, though. 🙂

Well, I certainly think you got its good side! 😛

Seems that way, doesn’t it, Eve? Thank you. 🙂

I’m guessing an abandoned ICM silo . . . I hear the West (and South, and East, and North) are rife with them.
Very striking. And the color . . . I would not mind that as a finish on my car. . . . and gun . . .

Hmm…only thing I can relate to ICM silo is for missiles? Is that what you mean? This is in downtown Salt Lake…I suppose it could be, but not sure. I do rather like the colors, as well…and I do think it would be nice on a gun barrel. 🙂

Yes, missiles. I meant to type ICBMs, but missed the “B”. And downtown Salt Lake would be the perfect place for it as no one would suspect it.
May 18, 2012 at 9:58 pm
I considered it with the “B” in there…and you’re probably right…nobody would suspect it. 🙂

You’ve made this inanimate object come to life. Like Yvonne above, I wondered if this was HDR, but you’ve explained that it wasn’t.

Thank you, Steve…nope, no HDR, just a bit of shadow. Thank you for visiting again. 🙂

just briliant!

Thank you, Rikszto. 🙂

Hello Scott, you’ve got a great eye for what will make a great image. We pass scenes like this every day without a second glance but you’ve made it into something fascinating. I love it.

I’m glad you like it so much, Finn…thank you. 🙂
