Producing Own Cloud

If I remember right it was -13F this morning as I headed out to shoot. Across a corn field I saw the sugar factory and it was making it's own cloud. I was very calm and all the steam and smoke from the factory was just hanging in the air and spreading for miles in a thin cloud. Thanks for the comments and critiques.

Sigma 17-70
Manual

Great image, Richard. Works really well in b/w.. 13 below is above and beyond the call of duty but it makes for some crazy steam images. Great job. :toast:

Nice, dramatic image. I like the grainy, film look.
