Clee Quarries, Coal

Despite the fact that the Collieries closed decades earlier the quarries extracted coal. (Owned by ARC)

Ironically the image was made while I was being photographed with my Wista for a magazine article, and I twisted the camera & made the image while posing with it :D

This is a really lovely image, Ian. The overall... light tonality... with the darker elements sort of floating within, particularly the tracks... very nice. I'm surprised to read the circumstances!
 
Fantastic image Ian. Gorgeous tonal range.
