What do you think

it's an iconic shot & the sky gives it impact.

It's such a shame that there are so many cars in the shot because the power of the image is diminished by the fact that it is in effect another tourist destination.

BTW, I have the same shot as this from my visit a few years ago, though I shot it in B&W film.

I saw some of your other Auschwitz shots on Flickr, this is the standout for me. (do you have any more anywhere?)

If you're interested, I scanned my photos & put them online in 2001 - [url]http://www.neesam.com/auschwitz/[/url]

I agree about the cars too. I dont have any other online. I was rather rushed when taking them as I was part of a large group and didnt get the time to take what I wanted really. My shots of the crematoria were without a tripod or image stabilisation I just sat the camera on posts and things.

This is definitely a good shot and I agree about the cars. The sky adds impact but feels like it's a little 'noisy' after the processing. Can you smooth out the noise a little?

Makes me feel very sad and upset. Great image and doing it's job evoking emotion perfectly.
