@ River It is the Derwent River and the factory is the zinc works. I have titled the photos and you can just mouse over them to see what each photo is.
I feel like that about the Hunter River here. The giant, menacing coal loaders are there if you turn your head. Same thing if you drive into the country–turn a corner and there is an open-cut mine, because we can think of nothing better to do than dig up bits of Australia and sell it overseas.

Which river is that and what is that factory thing on the far bank?

Fab & disturbing. BTW saw some of you gorgeous cups on twitter yesterday. I want lots!
Beautiful photos, even of the factory.
Absolutely stunning photos, Kim. I want to go to there. Hehehe.

The pics were so pretty until you got to the factory… I’m sure you took the photo *well* but I was admiring the pristine beauty of it all ’till then.
If I had a river like that nearby I think we’d probably spend a lot of time near it as well.
Shame about the horrible, horrible factory. You can hear the earth screaming, can’t you?
Thought provoking – I will be back again. Thank you for the labels. This means that tomorrow I can google away finding out about the locality.
The clarity is superb – eerily it felt as though I were there. You certainly are getting the hang of the new camera.
Its weird how a photo can sometime say more than words.
Such a shame about the zinc works ;-(
