This wide panoramic photograph shows the Thyssenkrupp steelworks in Duisburg during the quiet hours of the evening, when the fading light softens the industrial edges of the Ruhr skyline. The Rhine River curves gently beside the sprawling factory complex, reflecting traces of warm color from the setting sun. The image was composed from several high-resolution drone shots, stitched to preserve detail across the full width of the industrial landscape. I wanted to capture the coexistence of raw industry and natural elements — the river, the trees, and the soft atmosphere that envelops the scene. Even in such a mechanized environment, there’s a sense of calm and rhythm. The fading light adds depth, transforming the smoke and steam into subtle tonal layers that blend with the sky. This photograph stands as both documentation and interpretation: a tribute to the Ruhr’s industrial heritage, its resilience, and its quiet beauty seen from above.
