Driving down Veteran's Parkway on my way home from work, I noticed this black smoke starting to billow up at the Port of Providence, just across Watchamocket Cove. The view coming down the parkway - which isn't visible here - suggested that this was fire related and not dust from fresh coal being delivered. Given the LNG, oil, coal, and gas surrounding that location, rapid containment would be a good thing.

Post processing started with a neutral filter in Topaz B&W FX. I adjusted color sensitivity sliders, adaptive exposure, regions, contrast, and boost black. A levels adjustment was added in PSE.

Here's the high res version in Smugmug: http://kannafoot.smugmug.com/Photo-Challenges/PAD2014/i-Twt26Qw/0/XL/2014%2007%2023_0008%20copy-XL.jpg
Wow, certainly is a lot of smoke! A wonderful shot to document this sight, you must have quite the interesting drive to and from work!
