Power Station

I decided to check out Bold Point at lunch today, hoping to get a photo of some sailboats across the river. There's a large wooden ruin in the middle of the river, though, and the boats I wanted to photograph kept ducking behind it. I liked this scene, though, with the old ruined tugboat in front of the I-Way Bridge (Interstate 195), and the coal-burning Power Plant. Seeing the scene from this perspective, I realized that this would be a very interesting night scene. I'll have to go back there when sunset occurs early and before it turns too cold to enjoy photography along the waterfront.
Post processing started with a neutral filter in Topaz B&W FX. I adjusted color sensitivity sliders, adaptive exposure, regions, contrast, boost black, and boost white. A levels adjustment was added in PSE.
