Smoke Gets In Your Eyes

I saw this power plant as I was heading out of state for the week end and could not get a decent shot. Today on the return home I fared a little better.
I hope that is all steam coming out and not smoke! They must be seen from a long way away!

@maggiemae I am with Maggiemae! Hope that is steam. Yikes!

@maggiemae @espyetta I am certain you are both right! It sure looks like smoke though doesn't it?

@grammyn That black stuff does

Steam or smoke - we need power!!! Nice shot!

Nice shot Katy...love the title!

It was a nuclear power plant causing steam to turn turbines.

@leananiemand True enough! thanks for taking the time, Leana. I have been on a trip and struggled to keep up with 365 so I can imagine how difficult it is for you on your perpetual trip!

@chrissieh Oh, Chrissie. that is so nice of you ! Thanks.

@espyetta I think the black you see is just shadows on the stack of steam from the steam above it.

Very nice capture. I like the mix of the smoke with the clouds.

@anazad511 Thanks, Ana. It is as if the clouds originated from the stacks.

Amazing how the smoke is going straight up. Obviously no wind!

@kwiksilver It was a quiet sunny day.

Nice shot, Katy. Love the smoke going straight up towards the clouds. Cool song.

Yup smoke gets in my eyes too, especially this kind. We are the only creatures that pay to live on this planet and boy do we pay. It is a great shot though, love how they are looming out of the landscape. Well spotted!

@silverlight Thanks so much, Cheryl. I think it may actually be steam from the reactor but still one wonders!

Nice shot! Plants are part of our world, but sometimes it's a little jarring to see them in the middle of those picturesque hills.

@eudora I was surprised to see it when we drove by.
