Barbed Wire for Petroleum Photo

Photographer’s Note

- In my area - Grandpuits-Bailly-Carrois Oil refinery - The famous refinery directly fed out of the crude oil since the port of Le Havre by pipeline gives the opportunity to take some photographs tiny bit industrial.

Giorgio this picture is very different from your others. Still a good picture showing a facet of your region. One can sometimes imagine that everything around your city is old and classic, but then you show us this modern structure. Nice work Giorgio.

A fine industrial photo Giorgo, the refinery by itself would be a good photo, but the messy barbed wire fence enforces that gritty, industrial, urban feel.

Did you try this in black and white at all? With a bit of noise you could have given it more of a dirty look.

Salut Giorgio
Quel changement de style, tu nous fais une magnifique série sur Provins et d'un coup sans nous prévenir tu nous balances du un "tantinet" industriel. J'aurais eu un petit penchant pour du n&b pour une photo (serie?) comme celle la. Mais c'est bien réalisé techniquement. bravo
Amicalement
Hervé

Hi Giorgio. Though not the prettiest of subjects it is still a striking photo. Good colours and composition. Thanks for sharing.
Cheers, Paul.
