It looks very imposing and powerful from that angle.

@lisa v: it's an imposing place, a bit like my vision of hell
DonLon from Providence, RI, United States
I love industrial shots. Very good . I like the overall affect, but am not sure about the frame

@DonLon: thanks. it's a favorite subject for me too.
@Matt Sutton: thanks matt
@David: thanks david. the answer to your question is - almost. the holga is a 6x6 format. with the polaroid back and the 80's series (god rest its soul) film, a slightly smaller image is produced.

what a marvel! beautiful dark tones here and faabulous architectural lines... love the 'smudge' factor... fantastic!

I really don´t know if I would eat the bread from that factory....it scares me a bit. Great composition!

@Nilla: thanks nilla. i know exactly what you mean. it's not an image consistent with bread.
Observing from West Cheshire, United Kingdom
Interesting... almost doom-like shot of the plant. Good result

@Observing: thanks - i wish this was available in smellavision. the intense smell of yeast is almost overwhelming. it would add to the impression.
Howard F. from South Pasadena, Calif., United States
I just saw an old documentary on what happens when engineering fails. One of them is a chemical plant explosion which had similar chimney like this bread plant. A beautiful creepy shot, and love that Holga edge.

@Howard F.: thanks howard. i'd hate to think of this place failing. it occupies several blocks in the middle of a town. i find the place creepy but fascinating.
DarkElf from Perth, Australia
very interesting industrial shot with a certain dark mood to it... love the angle here and choice of colour tone...

@DarkElf: thanks, i appreciate it. i have to admit though, the color tone was chosen by the film.
