February 14 2004:
Love Isn't....

Aldershot, Hampshire

....a gasholder, particularly when its virtually in your back garden. But the residents of North Lane in Aldershot now have something to cheer about as it is now being dismantled, and another familiar local landmark will soon be gone. Just out of shot is an area covered by mesh which appears to be part of the dismantling process. I took the liberty of using the Channel Mixer to obtain the sky effect, which can also happen naturally sometimes!

Just a reminder: this weeks teaser has today been released, as well as last weeks answer.

Nice one.

Great shot. I really like this sort of industrial photo and you made quite good use of the channel mixer for it. I'm wondering whether you shot it this straight or whether you had to use the free transform tool to get such nicely parallel lines?

Looking forward to seeing you back at my galleries with more "gone to the dogs" humor of course. - liza

What an eye you have! The color is perfect!

Nice effect with the channel mixer, and I like the geometry of the gasholder. Even if I have a slight phobia of them...don't ask!

Great image, I like the colour mixing you have done

The diagonal lines make this a very dynamic image. The manipulated sky color works very well here.
