Industrial sunset

This is not something usually associated with Venice, but it is situated just opposite of the city. This is Porto Maghera, a huge refinery and chemical industry cite. You see about one third of it. A lot of controversy is surrounding this cite due to its very negative environmental impact


other sizes: small medium original auto

Anna and Galina, thanks for comments. Yes, it is shot through a bus window. At first I thought to do something about reflection but then decided just to leave it as it is

BTW did you take this shot from behind a window? Some reflection in the sky :)

Wow certainly I wouldn't guess this was Venice. Very nice silhouette and sky color. Perhaps that thing in the foreground could be removed or cropped out?

I like to see not tourists’ side of Venice. I also like industrial part of city well captured and colored with sunset. Nice!
