+1
IMHO the colors of the first ones are far superior than any B&W or HDR. |

I thought it was in this thread, but maybe not.
In a picture similar to the ones you have here (the colour ones are cracking), you posted one that had a Mine, or Mine spoil/tips in it. Any chance of letting me know where it is?

Thanks guys, I like the colour ones too, the HDR are more lively and colourful but my favourite is a normal shot. I just like to try different options.
I think the mines and spoil tips are these ones, right?
That is Kirby Fell, a few miles north of Barrow-in-Furness on the southern side of the Duddon Estuary.
It's a big slate quarry, I don't know if there are any mine shafts or underground workings there, I will research it for you if you like.

Beautiful set of landscapes. I like the realistic colours. Your HDRs are more discrete and convincing than most other HDRs I usually see.

Thanks Orio. It was rare to have such great light as I had to shoot these hence the normal ones look great. HDR is handy when the light is not so good and normal shots are too flat and lacking something. I try to make the most of every time we have good light and use HDR as a fall-back when the light is less good, which is often here.
I took my Konica FT-1 with me and newly acquired Hexanon UC 80-200 and was going to shoot some film shots too, but after 2 exposures the batteries died.
Reminds me why I like old manual SLRs, should have taken my Autoreflex T as well.
Oh well, you learn....

That's the one Ian.
That would be Burlington Slate Quarry, and there are indeed underground parts (Numerous ones!). If it was disused, then I would be up there like a shot, it's not far off the size of some of the North Wales quarries.
I do find it interesting that what appears to be a caravan park is built on the spoil from another quarry immediately below it, with some decent sized Workings evident.
As an aside, all Slate works are called Quarries, but the majority have some form of underground workings.

Tis indeed Burlington Slate.
There is a large part of the former quarry that is long disused, the back side of the Fell, near Grizebeck. There are another set of large abandoned slate workings with caves and underground parts up on Broughton Moor, I keep meaning to get up there for some photos but every time i been up there the light was awful and it rained.
