Hoogovens Steelworks at night

Name: Hoogovens Steelworks at night

Description: A hand-held shot, hence rather fuzzy, of the western end of the plant, taken from the top of the dunes south of Wijk aan Zee. The dunes act as a barrier so you are scarcely aware of all this activity on the doorstep of this quiet seaside town. They also provide a good vantage point from which to view the night sky, as this photo of an Iridium satellite taken on the same night shows.
