I really like the contrast between the lights and the shadows in this shot, especially the fact that they're divided roughly by a diagonal suggested by the conveyor belt.

I think this falls under hybrid.

It can go in analog as well.

@O'Neal: Must I change it or just leave it and choose Hybrid next time?

I've changed them for you, so all good

Thanks

@Gaston 012 it's O'Neill, by the way. The O'Neal's were exiled to Australia, O'Neill's to Canada

Thanks to all.
The place is a couple of miles from my home and I am obsessed with it.
The area surrounding the factory is Hard Hat only and they have kicked me out a couple of times albeit gently.
Then there is this guy, a bit aggressive, who claims he owns the property surrounding the place, including the little promontory where I stood to take this photo.
I sneak in whenever it is cloudy and take shots in a hurry, usually 35mm for speed.
I have not yet been able to take the 8x10 there.
It is an adventure every time.

I understand the attraction, photographic and otherwise, to such places. There's a sugarbeet processing plant a couple of miles south of us that I started photographing a couple of years ago with my Mamiya M645S. I have dozens of shots of it, from various points on the compass to close-up to distant to winter/spring/summer/fall. One day I went out there with my camera and found a group of other camera enthusiasts gathered because the factory officials were demonstrating The White Satin, a diesel railroad engine associated with the place. I've posted only two of the phtotos I've taken of the place, and I took them both that day (see https://www.photrio.com/forum/media/the-white-satin.60997/ and https://www.photrio.com/forum/media/the-white-satin-with-a-curves-adjustment-in-ps.61002/). They don't show the factory, actually, but you get the idea, no?

EDIT: It's actually the same shot, one with additional adjustments suggested by a commenter.

Since calcining limestone to make lime produces CO2 (hopefully trapped and used for other products), and they are burning coal, they might be a bit sensitive.

It reminds me of both Albert Renger-Patsch and Brave New World. One of those rare photographs that seems to demand a sound track.
