Lots of people say they wouldn't live near these but I don't understand why. I rather like the aesthetics of industrial buildings. There's a rawness and fitness to them that contrasts interestingly both with the landscape and with residential structures. Also, the fiery (or at least steamy) bravura of generation is itself attractive. Wouldn't be able to see your photography or communicate with you without such generation!

interesting point of view. though those cooling towers often create huge plumes of vapor which create overcast on large regions on otherwise sunny days ...

Heh! Rainy and cloudy days are also my favorite sort. I guess I'm a weirdo!

Coal fired I suppose. I doubt there's any nuclear reactors in Belgium.

Cooling towers make very powerful (no pun intended) subjects, don't they?!?
I would never live that close to them!!!
Great image!

The wise ass has to correct the chimneys to cooling towers I found it to be a strange neighbourhood. On the one side sort of rural with little gardens belonging to the houses - on the other hand so massively industrial ....

EintoeRn In reply to offbeat-art-dog [2012-03-28 16:24:45 +0000 UTC]

strange scenery, indeed. people almost living in a rural environment, but also very close to the industry. a bit like a message from the past ...

offbeat-art-dog In reply to EintoeRn [2012-03-28 19:01:07 +0000 UTC]

yes...this is a nuclear power plant, correct?

And the homes seem strange somehow...and the road has been closed...you can see the tire tracks all turning to the right...

All add up to something not quite normal...

EintoeRn In reply to offbeat-art-dog [2012-03-29 18:25:59 +0000 UTC]

No, I guess it is a coal power plant. It is located in one of the former coal mining areas of Belgium. And also there was only normal type of security directly at the plant. Nuclear is different.
These roads were actually surprisingly busy on a Saturday - in all directions
