Love the bowl effect and the warm brown. Much better in colour of course! Sorry couldn't resist after seeing the comment of one critic in your thread. Re-post when you're allowed say 10MB and I have a 30x40inch screen only then can this size neg be appreciated!

Of course I could hear the miners singing Cwm Rhondda as I made the image, its incredible to see no coal mines, and only traces of their remains in what was the one of the most important of the South Wales mining areas.

I'd rather have a 30"x40" print

Ian, I really enjoy the depth to this. There is something about this image that just feels right. I can't explain it. The print is really nice with its subtle, almost muted tones. Let me know when you have that 30x40 done and you can mail it to me... Nice work.

John Roberts, a native of these parts, does some good shots of S Wales( the people and places) as it is today in a photojournalistic style.
