Description

As everyone seems to like this old tramway tunnel (its my favourite too!) this is the view a little further in.
Ti-Paul asked to see it in 'the light' so heres a shot where I got a friend to hold a slave flash part the way down the tunnel to light up the rock - its really only in the photograph that you get the full colour and texture of the walls!
At the far end it comes out into the bottom of a very small quarry, with another interesting passage leading off .....
[Another slow exposure (1sec), with a large flash fired manually from near the camera]

I didn't think this was a photo when I saw the thumbnail. I love the green ferns and blue overall, super textures. I wouldn't go in there, though!

Congrats for the excellent use of artificial light to show us the beauty of an apparently ordinary tunnel. I love this. Bravo ! V.

Wonderful shot, a good feeling of scale and depth - almost surreal. Well done!
