Thank you all for the comments, much appreciated. I am a little surprised on the criicism of the coloured daylight area. My concept was trying to show present mine enviroment (colour), with a suggestion of days gone by (sepia). By having the scene in b&w, or the miner apearing out of a black background, I felt would just make it an ordinary interior mining pic. Oh well, back to the drawing board! Disappointing after all the trouble of finding authentic helmet with mounted, original brass acetylene lamp and a very rare Davis Safety lamp which is being carried by the extremely high priced, miner stand-in. Thats the breaks I 'spose.
