I like this 'smoke beauty' - all emitting at the same time - a great photograph.

Powerful capture. I like these chimnies like "dirty tower bells...to (bloody)heaven"

Really excellent capture, I like the muted tones very much

Nice one of Drax... I look out of my kitchen door every morning to see if I can get an interesting shot of it and you beat me to it. I like it

Hi Monz

It was taken from the road down to Barlow Commom Nature Reserve and has been reversed 180 degrees and cropped slightly.
