I was stunned the first time I saw it, thought it was nuclear. Now it's kinda a chuckle thing when I drive by.

I've been wanting to get a show of that cooling tower for the longest time so I made a note to get out that way to grab it. (long drive)

The would if it was nuclear.

It's just a cooling tower for the coal plant.

Awesome shot. That thing is massive. I'd love to climb up that right side and hang out on those platforms.

Aeires In reply to bluesypher [2005-09-03 05:20:43 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, it's really incredible. Only way I'd climb that thing was if they let me hang out with a camera.

I was going to ask if it was nuclear, but I see you've already answered that one

Cool shot though.

Aeires In reply to Eynowd [2005-08-25 22:13:25 +0000 UTC]

Thanks. I'd like to get a shot further away so that it doesn't crowd the frame but it's crowded with to many houses and business buildings.

Very effective composition! Stark, powerful and yet with some detail interest in the small platforms attached to the side of the tower.

Aeires In reply to Ellygator [2005-08-22 00:29:49 +0000 UTC]

I have some shots of the ladders on the right hidden but I had to get really close and the framing wasn't as nice so I had to settle for this angle. Too many houses getting in the way.

Well.. there are many different ways of thinking about this..
there was a really nice report in the recent National Geographics about it..
Nicely captured

Luckily this one is non-nuclear. Not sure if this was intended to go nuclear or not but it sure fools people.

Power to the people... more like "Pollution to the people" I know that white smoke pollutes less than black smoke, but still...

Sorry for being a pessimist

Aeires In reply to DreamerDesSonges [2005-08-18 02:44:27 +0000 UTC]

Well, that's steam so it's not too bad. Didn't see any smoke from the other towers because they are real strict on control measures here. Always a downside when it comes to power but it's an evil we have to live with.
