Hey, Boris, I like this a lot! Full of contradictions. On the one hand, very pastoral: the stream meandering so beautifully through the frame, the hill and trees in the background, the lovely green grass in the foreground (I really like the differing textures!). Then, on the other hand there's the power station and power lines. Now, what's kind of cool about the power station is that it looks so quaint and old-fashioned - not at all what we expect from "modern" power stations. It's almost as if they actually tried to make it blend in with the countryside - quite different from our current "monster-size, man vs. nature" philosophy. I actually kind of like the power lines, just so we know it's a power station, plus, there's something they seem to add to the "flow" of the photo that I like. Lovely shot! cheers, frank -- "The optimist thinks this is the best of all possible worlds. The pessimist fears it is true." -J. Robert Oppenheimer
