POTW-Gordon G
 

Thanks Gordon for picking my "Autumn Scene" photo as your personal POTW. This is a local scene to me and I was out trying out my new Canon SX240HS compact-results are quite promising so far (and this from a Nikon DSLR user!)

my personal favorite for the past week is "like my hat?" by Paullangford.

I just love everything about this shot, the fern caught up on his head, the tongue sticking out, beautiful bokeh & stunning light..... just makes me smile when I look at it...makes me feel good.

My photo of the week 12.11.12

I dont usually go for urban landscapes, but this is such a powerful (no pun intended) image. I love the monotone treatment with dense shadows giving strength and structure to the building, and the small lights providing highlights. The plume of smoke is very well placed, streaming across to link with the steam from the cooling towers. In all, it has immediate impact, but then gives enough detail to reward a longer look.
The image gives a feel for the impact of the power station - both generating power and pollution. Definately one I will come back to again...

another great choice Gordon, I also love that image...there were 3 or 4 I had to choose from this week.
