Title: Carn Galver Mine, Cornwall
Post by: Vieri Bottazzini on June 05, 2020, 01:51:23 pm
Besides featuring some incredible landscapes, Cornwall, in the UK, is a testament to the mining past of the UK. Dotted with abandoned and ruined engines and mining sites, some of which have been turned into open air museums, together with the Atlantic skies the Cornish landscape offers endless possibilities for dramatic B&W. This is Carn Galver Mine, 106 seconds of exposure with my Hasselblad X1D, Hasselblad XCD 30mm and Formatt-Hitech Firecrest Ultra filters.

Thank you for viewing, best regards

That is a beauty, and the monochrome presentation is just perfect for the subject.
