Great concept. You can see how the factory destroys the beautiful heaven or landscape in the bacground. Great shot

Thanks a lot!
This was a fun picture to compose, but it sure can be a little bit frustrating some times when you try to get parts from different photos to blend together as if they where from the same shot

Good picture both artistically and as a social commentary. The colors you used are beautifully eerie.

Thanks!
I tried to get a little bit "apocalyptic" in this piece
Maybe I will try it some more time

Thanks a lot!

It was a very fun manipulation to do
A few photos and some custom airbrusing was used (oh, and a few curses to )

More interesting colors on this one than you use to have, I think. What I want is more details on the factory, make it a bit brighter to be able to use brightness / contrast and bring out all those exciting details of an industry building. The sky is good and should not be changed.
