I've called it a mill but I don't really know what it is. It's on the riverside in Greenwhich anyway. I posted a version of this before but someone pointed out the horizon wasn't straight..... This version is lots of different experiments combined. I don't really know what I think of it but I decided to post it anyway.

I really like it. It has a spooky look to it, being a black and white, and the huge clouds, that seem to darken towards the bottom, gives the feeling that maybe something satanic is going to happen. Like something in a horror movie. The mill almost has the look of a haunted castle or something like that. Oh Oh...did I just see Boris Karloff?

Sharp contrast, hard lines, it looks like an image out of the 1920s. I can see the reasoning behind your title, just what goes on behind closed doors?!! Love the lighting on this. Nice PS work, Nigel.

A powerful image with good use of B&W. I like what you have created here. Very good image.

I don't know why Sir Nigel but it reminded me of this song. It looks like old meeting new. Nice photo and I would say the B/W was good idea.

Some pretty amazing detail in this Nigel. I like the opposing hard geometrical lines the structures create against the softer but forboding sky. So... are those stacks used in some kind of burning rituals? Impressive work Nigel :)
