Industrial Heritage Photo

Photographer’s Note

Another view of UNESCO's latest world heritage site, the Vitkovice industrial complex in Ostrava. Nice to know there's more than just a few nutters like me that appreciate scenes like this

Hello Richard,

Also all is B&W not my great favorite picture style, you show us here a picture where us grandchildren shall look with open eyes in future.
But the B & W give here a good example out of it past, nice presentation with the gray sky against the dark chimneys.
Thanks for sharing.

Happy Easter,
John

Richard - B&W lends itself so well to industrial landscapes and the form of the metalwork here shows up particularly well in silhouette. The blank sky also adds to the atmosphere.
