Industrial Storage in Houston

On the drive back from Houston to Austin, I pulled over to a small town just outside the sprawl. One of them had a bunch of old industrial tanks, pipelines, towers, chutes, and other mysterious bits and pieces. The light was getting just about right, so I started walking around to explore it with my tripod. I set up here and fired away.

    Awesome photo! As other have said, a very First Person Shooter feeling; reminds me of the hours I have spent fragging baddies in games like Half Life (original and 2) , Ghost Recon and Battlefield! Thanks for the memories.

    Wicked except enormous amount of pixelation on sky. Dunno if you care but try creating photofusion image and mask sky from it. It creates very nice skies without pixelation.

    *Exposure fusion* Correction to previous

    Great job, Trey. I normally wouldn’t even look at a picture like this, but you brought such depth to the photo, it comes to life!! Turned into an interesting group of structures to look at. WTG!!

    Thanks!

    Thomas – I left the noise there on purpose this time… usually I get rid of it… but I liked it in this grungy case.

    Hmm have to say after looking another time, its might add some depth. It looks bit like “radiation” on sky which suits this as it looks like 3D shooter :P

    Btw, I do HDR photography too but more locally as I can’t afford to travel a lot. If you have time sometime and want to, you could check some of my pics and give some feedback? Tho I can see you’re very busy. Drop me a msg on facebook and Ill give few links if you want to.
