beautiful photo. Perfect colours. This is one to be very proud of. I notice you have said you had it blown up on canvas; we have done the same with a couple of ours and the results are very good. Looking at your other pics I am envious of your natural ability.....the moonlight in Bath is fantastic.

Très belle photo , l'accord des formes est super

c'est vraiment une admirable photo ! Bravo ! Rivejan

Thanks for you comments Dave. I worked underground at Levant to help ,seal the breach in the seabed and pump out the workings in the summer of 1966. I later, as Engineer on site and later Mine Manager at Geevor for Cornwall County Council, was in charge of the capping of the shafts on the Geevor/Levant site. During these works, we developed the present underground tour at Geevor. My first day at work underground was at Geevor at the age of 16. After working in connection with Cornish mining for 43 years, my last underground work was done during an inspection of Deep Adit at Geevor in the spring of 2009. So my mining career both started and finished at the same mine. Your name is of course a very local one, and Warrens worked in many of the local mines. A few years ago I lived in the Converted chapel at Pendeen known by many as Little Bill Chapel, Bill Warren, a publican, paid for essential roof repairs in the 1960's hence the name, some say. Bill Warren did indeed pay for repairs, this is recorded in the deeds of the chapel, but I think the Bill referred to is William O'Bryan a local methodist preacher, as the chapel is also known as the Bryanites chapel.

Last time I looked Tokyo was not in France :)

Superbe photo

Hi Roger, I have a stereoscopic photograph of the same wreckage, taken from a slightly different viewpoint, that may help confirm the location. If you care to contact me, I can easily send you a scan of the images. Regards, Peter K

Roger you commented on my Cape Cornwall pic and youre quite right; the similarity is amazing! This photo is stunning and just like yuor photo, mine has undergone no photoshopping or similar. I have to say the sunsets in Cornwall are simply awesome. I had mine blown up onto a large canvas, maybe you should do the same with this photo, as it is stunning.

Very typical view of this part of Cornwall
