Cooling towers

... and so ... from Devon, via Cheltenham, up to South Staffordshire, where we're doing a house-swap with my sister, who's looking after my mother while we're away.

These cooling towers at Rugeley Power Station used to grace the horizon from where we were when we lived in Staffordshire years ago. There were more than four, but now only these remain. Drove past today and took several snaps from the moving car, then had a play with this image on Photoshop. I used 'cut out' - which simplifies the image into broad areas by tone - then I recoloured the sky. I went for a complementary colour for added zizz! There's something very imposing and pleasing, I think, about these constructions.
