Photographer's Note
From today at the Munksjö (the monks lake)
The Munksjö factory is the origin of the Munsjö AB Company today owned by Jefferson Smurfit.
The factory is producing paper since 1862 and the company is today world leading in some areas. Until 1950:s the lake was pollutioned by the factory and other industries in the area, but today it slowly are recovering.
Picture only framed.
..and by the way I live on the hills behind the factory...

Hi Stefan,
I should say "WOW!!!" for this magical industrial landscape. Amazing colors here. The brown tones contrast perfectly with the overall blue around. Reflections are no worse than a superb forest reflection on a lake. Amazing photo and great composition! TFS,
Deniz

A really superb reflection Stefan, and you had great light to work with. Your shot has a good balance from left to right, but I think a slight crop along the top is in order to give a better sense of balance between sky and reflection. There's not much in it though, and overall your shot works very well.
Good work.
Cheers,
Ben

Stefan,
Interesting subject for this perfectly symmetrical photo. The reflection is outstanding here giving the photo nice balance and depth. The lighting and colors are great with nice sharpness and DOF.

Hello Stefan,
There is only one way to see this isn't turned 180 degrees... as the reflected colours always are a tad richer than the original!
Amazing mirror with pin sharp details, wonderful colours and well done!

Hello Stefan. Yesterday the government of our country approved the building of a pulp mill beside a river in Tasmania. They said it would be 'world's best practice' for keeping the environment clean, but today the newspapers report that the pulp mills and paper factories in Sweden are cleaner!
Back to the photo. Your shot is magnificent. What beautiful rendition of the colour and stillness. Perfect symmetry! A superb image.
Regards,
Andrew

Hej Stefan,
A great photo of this paper mill. A fantastic reflection. I´ve always liked paper mills, when I was young I worked in a lot of them and always thought I would end as a papper engineer!

Hej Stefan
Great symmetry here which works well thanks to the towers of smoke and chimneys extending into the sky/water. The water is so still too. The brown of the building stands out really well against the deep blue.

Hola, Stefan, beautiful light to capture the symmetry between the skyline and the reflection. Specially like the way that the light is balanced. For some reason the image gives me the impression that it is very cold.
TFS,

Hej Stefan
Those high sky autumndays are a gift for anyone wandring around with a camera.
Good to show some industrial architecture in this way as a change from all pinforest and red huts (such as mine).
Maybe I would get even closer to see the texture of this old brick factories.
Ha en skön Söndag.

From the water appearance, I would say the pollution is completely recovered. I think it is the first time I see a chimney reflected in a crisp lake :-)
Technically perfect, sharpness, saturation, composition, contrast and exposure flawless.

Looks like a kaleidoscope. The reflection is perfect, the light seems to be pure. Impressive...

Stefan, c'est plutôt rare de faire une belle photo avec un site industriel comme celui-ci. La photo est parfaitement réussie.
Voici ce qui est dit des frères Montgolfier, inventeurs des ballons à air chaud :
"Leur père, Pierre, est papetier comme son père et son grand-père, ce qui est une tradition dans la famille qui remonte au XIVe siècle. Le moulin est installé à Vidalon-lès-Annonay, petit bourg de l'Ardèche situé non loin du Rhône à 75 kilomètres au sud de Lyon. La papeterie a une réputation européenne."
Tu vois, le papier est une industrie qui est bien connue chez nous à Annonay.
J'ai ajouté ce cliché au thème "Sites Industriels"
