I know the contest is for 'depth of field', so I tweaked the idea and went with 'depth of sky'. It was the whisp of smoke from stack that caught my eye, with an industrial steely grey sky above.
John your right about that wisp of smoke. It really adds to the depth. I like the distant city in the shot as well and I think the cloudy day is great for the shot as well. Great details and great entry.
The laser-sharp focus is what makes this pic...and forms a great foil for those soft clouds that fade into haze in the background. Excellent picture! Good luck!
I'm in total agreement with Sharon... I'm really enjoying the well defined structures and silhouettes against the gray skies, and the billows of smoke as it wafts off into the distance! I also like the haze over the City in contrast to the sharp foreground structures! Excellent work, and best of luck, John!
