Steel Mill

Dofasco in HDR

This is a great location in Hamilton for taking pictures down into the Dofasco Steel mill. The down side to this location is that one has to risk their life to get here. This is shot from the side of a highway overpass, and right next to a “nest” of security guards who might not take too well to people with cameras. The security guard building is just to the left of the stop sign at the bottom left of the picture. I manages to snap off a half dozen shots in 15 seconds and get out of site. Its amazing how nervous a camera can make people.

I was in Hamilton yesterday and thought I would re-shoot the same picture I took last year at this same spot. It is one of my favorites and I wanted to create one in HDR as well.
