Eyesore

The debatable beauty of Huntly Powerstation in the fog and rain...in my experience there isn't much about Huntly that can be described as beautiful, and chief among those that can't be described as such is this monstrosity lurking in the fog on the opposite bank of the Waikato River.
Looks better here. I agree with you about Huntly. Rather sad it doesn't have much street appeal. I won't miss passing through it once the bypass is in place

@deliad Thanks - it's certainly not the nicest

great capture there. Poor old Huntly...

@brigette Thanks. I'm reasonably certain that Huntly knew what it was getting into...

Great looming out of the grey. Don't know the building but know the type. Powerful

@ceilidh thanks very much...they all seem to be of the same type. I know we need the power, but I don't think we need the ugly that goes with it.

@gigiflower I'm sure there is, but not from where I was

Really like the mood in this. Very industrial and bleak.

@longexposure thanks very much
@traceyhatcher thanks - I took it sitting in the car rather than getting wet after a long day, so just another rush job I'm afraid
@lynnilou thanks very much
@denisefuller thank you very much :)

I like this through the fog

@wearing0 Thanks, best viewed with eyes closed I think!

'Lurking' is spot on!! Good shot.

@golftragic thanks very much - lurking is what the town of Huntly does best!

@graemestevens Symbiosis incarnate?

@lorenaavalos thanks - luck masquerading as skill I'm afraid!
