Thanks Toriaj. Strangely for me I didn't take a zoomed in shot at that particular spot. Best I can do is this centre crop. I did get some sunrise ones that were closer but there was a rather unattractive building site in the foreground. I'll have a go at one later.
I'd forgotten you were into power stations Geoff. Well I'll have to look this one up as it was taken near to the village of Willington but I thought that Willington power station's towers had been blown up. My next thought therefore was Radcliff Power Station but I'm not sure that's right. I'll get the OS map out & check it for you.

Yes you were right that close crop did work. I don't think I would have seen that myself thanks. Here are a few more a bit earlier in the morning & at a different viewpoint. All well cropped to remove horrible foreground but without any colour changes. The birds were a bonus

I like them all. My favourite is the first one though.
Excellent stuff - more power to yer camera!!!
Could be Ratcliffe I suppose....?
No I am not into power stations really - just I did a course at one a while back and took an interest.
Phill, I love the original, the center crop, and this last sunrise version. I find the blue pipes in the other two sunrise versions to be distracting. But I love the others, great series!
Thanks Toriaj they did come out better than I had expected. Those pipes were the top of the wire fence arround a building site that was in the foreground. I cropped off as much as I could & tried to take the shots to make it as dark an area as possible. Didn't quite work though so I should have done a bit of extra darkening in PP but didn't get round to it. Thanks again it's nice to be appreciated.
