EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the imposing presence of a factory chimney against the urban cityscape of Brussels, Belgium. Taken by Yves Herman on January 19,2018, this image showcases the industrial side of this bustling European capital. The towering chimney stands tall amidst a cloudy and overcast sky, creating an intriguing contrast between nature and human-made structures. The composition is strikingly creative as the photographer skillfully uses negative space to emphasize the enormity of the chimney. With no people in sight, it allows viewers to focus solely on this architectural marvel that symbolizes progress and productivity. As smoke billows out from its top, one cannot help but ponder about its impact on the environment. This image serves as a reminder of our complex relationship with industry and how it affects our surroundings. It prompts us to reflect upon issues such as air pollution and sustainability. While we may not know which company operates this particular factory or what products are being manufactured within its walls, this photograph transcends commercial interests. Instead, it invites contemplation about our modern cities' intricate tapestry where architecture meets nature in unexpected ways. Yves Herman's remarkable capture encapsulates both beauty and concern within a single frame – reminding us that even in an urban landscape dominated by concrete jungles, elements like factories can still evoke awe-inspiring emotions through their sheer presence alone.
