Le gisement d’étain de la région d’Abbaretz a fait l’objet d’exploitations très anciennes, dès l’époque gallo-romaine. Mais c’est au début du 20ème siècle que d’importants travaux de recherche ont débuté par la société nantaise des Minerais de l’Ouest (SNMO). L’exploitation principale a été réalisée à ciel ouvert sur le site du Bois Vert à l’ouest du bourg d’Abbaretz à partir de 1952. La mine à ciel ouvert a atteint des profondeurs allant de 40 à 70 m. Lors de l’exploitation, les matériaux extraits à la pelle mécanique étaient transportés par bandes transporteuses soit au nord de la route départementale directement lorsqu’il s’agit de roche de découverte ou de minerai trop pauvre en étai, soit dans l’usine de traitement du minerai. Dans l’usine, le minerai était concassé et broyé pour récupérer l’étain. Une fois ce dernier récupéré, les résidus de traitement étaient envoyés dans des grandes aires de décantation au nord de la route départementale. Cette activité a généré les terrils du Bois Vert visibles aujourd’hui : le terril conique composé de stériles d’exploitation (matériaux plus ou moins grossiers, moins chargés en métaux) et les terrils tabulaires en forme de plateaux composés de résidus de traitement (matériaux plus fins de type sable, plus chargés en métaux). L’étude menée récemment par le BRGM conclut à une concentration relativement importante en métaux dans les sols (arsenic notamment) présente dans les résidus des anciennes activités de traitement du minerai. Cette zone ayant donné lieu à une exploitation minière dans le passé contient naturellement des teneurs en métaux plus élevées que la moyenne de terres initialement chargées en métaux. Ce rapport indique qu’en dehors d’une promenade le long du chemin de randonnée et sur la montée au belvédère du terril conique, les autres usages ne sont pas compatibles avec le site.
The tin deposit in the Abbaretz region has been exploited for a very long time, since the Gallo-Roman period. But it was at the beginning of the 20th century that important research work began by the Nantes company of West Minerals (SNMO). The main mining was carried out in the open pit at the Bois Vert site to the west of the village of Abbaretz from 1952. The open pit mine reached depths ranging from 40 to 70 m. During operation, the materials extracted with a mechanical shovel were transported by conveyor belts either to the north of the departmental road directly in the case of discovery rock or ore too poor in prop, or to the plant of ore processing. At the plant, the ore was crushed and ground to recover the tin. Once the latter was recovered, the treatment residues were sent to large settling areas north of the departmental road. This activity generated the Bois Vert slag heaps visible today: the conical slag heap made up of waste rock (more or less coarse materials, less loaded with metals) and the tabular slag heaps in the form of trays made up of treatment residues ( finer sand type, more loaded with metals). The recent study carried out by BRGM concludes that there is a relatively high concentration of metals in the soils (arsenic in particular) present in the residues of former ore processing activities. This area, which has been used for mining in the past, naturally contains higher metal contents than the average for soil initially loaded with metals. This report indicates that apart from a walk along the hiking trail and on the climb to the conical slag heap lookout, other uses are not compatible with the site.

The hardest workers in the park. Mules haul people and heavy cargo down to the canyon and back up. Sometimes they are tethered together and when one loses his footing and goes over the edge, they all fall into their painful deaths. Mule deaths are often caused by the strenuous conditions of the canyon trails and harsh weather. South Rim mules (pictured) are said to receive proper care, nutrition and adequate rest. Heartbreakingly Havasupai Reservation (a different part of Grand Canyon that takes people to Havasu Falls) mules have been continuously reported suffering mistreatment and abuse for decades. It is common for those mules, horses and donkeys to be subjected to intensely long periods of uninterrupted work carrying loads beyond their strength without any breaks, food, water or rest. They also have been photographed to have ill-fitting gear with bleeding sores.
Having a mule carry you or your stuff is not a harmless "vacation experience" but a form of animal exploitation.
I wish mule rides weren't even an option in Grand Canyon or anywhere else in the world. Please think twice before using pack mules (or carriage rides in cities).

The Carreau Wendel Museum is the museum of the Wendel-Vuillemin coal pit, in Petite-Rosselle on the Saarland, Lorraine border. Though often in Germany, since 1945 it has been in Moselle department France.
The museum is an Anchor point on the European Route of Industrial Heritage.
The Wendel 1 pit was closed in 1989, Wendel 2 in 1992 and Wendel 3 in 2001. The first piece of coal was mined in Petite-Rosselle in June 1856, at the Saint-Charles pit. These pits are in France but surrounded on three sides by the national border with Germany. Several pits were dug between 1862 and 1889: Wendel 1, Wendel 2, Vuillemin 1 and Vuillemin 2. Emile Vuillemin was the consulting engineer for Charles de Wendel and Georges Hainguerlot's company- Compagnie Anonyme des Mines de Stiring. The coal produced was primarily used to fire the Wendel steelworks. The company became - Les Petits-fils de François de Wendel et Cie in 1889.
After the Second World War, the government required the industry to triple the Lorraine coal production within ten years. In the 1946 nationalising, the Wendel assets were assigned to public company Houillères du bassin de Lorraine. The Wendel 3 pit was dug in 1952, and in 1958 was equipped with the new wash house 3. The Wendel 1 and 2 pits were modernised and equipped with new headframes. After 1960, the coal recession hit: the company modernised wash house 1-2 in 1962 by creating a new module on top of the former wash house, adapted to the existing equipment. Operations and investment continued up until 1986 when central activities ceased. Some infrastructure continued to be used up until 1989 serving other pits in the Wendel franchise.
The museum is presented in several section. The simple tour shows the life of the miner and the hazardous working conditions. There is then an opportunity to take a guide tour down the workings seeing the machinery current when the last deep mine in France closed in 2004. There is an AM 100 heading machine, G210 electro-hydraulic loader, Electra 2000 shearer and ANF winning machine, roof supports etc.

We owe a lot to this planet on which we live and exploit all its resources to the fullest. Although we do our best to protect it individually, the world is getting damaged day by day due to reasons beyond our control. Our seas have turned into plastic garbage and there is nuclear and chemical waste in the soil. It is deliberately destroyed and we just watch. I am an environmental volunteer. I am not an activist, but I support them and I hope everyone will support them as well.
Despite everything, I feel happy as I see the stubborn attitude of plants. When you see a daisy rising from the cobblestones in the middle of the industry hell, say "hello" to it. Because he is braver than most of us.
Voilà un endroit que je voulais exploiter depuis BIEN longtemps : la courbe de sortie de la gare de Saint-Égrève ! En effet, vers la direction de Valence et/ou Lyon, une belle courbe se profile, et permet des clichés très sympathiques, surtout quand un train Corail avec locomotive en tête se présente face à nous !
Parti de la gare de Moirans depuis 7 minutes, le train Valence Ville - Annecy desservira la gare de Grenoble dans 5 minutes environ. Ensuite, il desservira les gares de Gières Universités, Pontcharra-sur-Bréda, Montmélian, Chambéry Challes-les-Eaux, Aix-les-Bains le Revard, Grésy-sur-Aix, Albens, Rumilly, et enfin Annecy son terminus. Il est tiré ce jour-ci par la BB22260 ainsi que 7 voitures Corail.
En 1965, Peter Wolkonsky achète les vieux bâtiments de ferme d'une exploitation agricole et recompose façades et toitures dans le style d'un ancien logis manorial du XVIIe siècle. Il creuse les différentes pièces d'eau, bâtit et décore des constructions annexes, fontaine ou pavillons et grotte italienne ornés de coquillages.
Les tempêtes de 1987 et 1999 causent de grands dégâts. Après la mort de Peter Wolkonsky en 1997, sa fille Isabelle et son mari Timothy Vaughan, paysagiste, restaurent le jardin et poursuivent l'œuvre de son créateur. Le paysagiste meurt en août 2025.
En 2021, les jardins sont achetés par le créateur de chaussures de luxe Christian Louboutin.
En mai 2025, ce jardin est considéré comme l'un des vingt-cinq plus beaux du monde, selon une liste publiée par le New York Times. Le paysagiste Louis Benech est à l'origine du classement du jardin à la 18e place.
Les jardins de Kerdalo s'étendent sur 18 hectares, le long d'un vallon encaissé qui descend en pente douce vers la rivière du Jaudy. Ce jardin-paysage à l'anglaise emprunte différents éléments d'inspiration italienne ou exotique.

In 1965, Peter Wolkonsky purchased the old farm buildings of a working farm and redesigned the facades and roofs in the style of a 17th-century manor house. He created various water features, built and decorated outbuildings, a fountain, pavilions, and an Italian grotto adorned with seashells. Storms in 1987 and 1999 caused extensive damage. After Peter Wolkonsky's death in 1997, his daughter Isabelle and her husband, landscape architect Timothy Vaughan, restored the garden and continued his work. The landscape architect died in August 2025. In 2021, the gardens were purchased by luxury shoe designer Christian Louboutin. In May 2025, this garden was ranked among the twenty-five most beautiful in the world, according to a list published by The New York Times. Landscape architect Louis Benech is responsible for the garden's 18th place ranking.
The Kerdalo gardens extend over 18 hectares, along a narrow valley that slopes gently down to the Jaudy River. This English-style landscape garden incorporates various elements of Italian and exotic inspiration.

Maiti Nepal was born out of a crusade to protect Nepali girls and women from crimes like domestic violence, trafficking for flesh trade, child prostitution, child labor and various forms of exploitation and torture. A group of socially committed professionals like teachers, journalists and social workers together formed Maiti Nepal in 1993 to fight against all the social evils inflicted upon our female populace. Most of all, its special focus has always been on preventing trafficking for forced prostitution, rescuing flesh trade victims and rehabilitating them. This social organisation also actively works to find justice for the victimized lot of girls and women by engaging in criminal investigation and waging legal battles against the criminals. It has highlighted the trafficking issue with its strong advocacy from the local to national and international levels.
Maiti has no literal translation but it denotes a girl's real family, where she was born into. The word has a sentimental value especially for a married Nepali woman who has no longer any right towards her parents or their property. She then becomes an outsider belonging solely to her husband and her family forever. The famous song, Maiti ghar timro haina paryi ghar jao--meaning "this is not your home, you belong to an outsider (husband)" says it all.
Maiti Nepal however is home to all women and girls—whether married or not—who are exploited, their rights grossly violated and neglected by family and society likewise. It was a crusade to find such victims a home for their protection from social evils that gave birth to this NGO in November 1993.
It was started by a handful of conscious professionals like teachers, journalists, and social workers committed towards combating the social crimes like domestic violence, girl trafficking, child prostitution, child labour and various forms of female exploitation.
Maiti's focus has always been on prevention of girl trafficking, a burning issue for Nepal. Rescuing girls forced into prostitution and helping to find economic alternatives have been our key struggle. Rehabilitation, although not literally possible especially with former prostitutes, is one major challenge we have accepted in our work. The practical steps would be to counsel them and provide non-formal education on health, laws, basic reading and writing. They are also trained to develop income-generation skills and provided Maiti's shelter until they are ready to stand on their feet. The sexually abused girls, abandoned children, potential victims of trafficking, destitute women, prisoner's children, returnees from Indian brothels, girls and children infected with HIV and Hepatitis B, intercepted girls are the major target groups or say, beneficiaries of our programs.

This is the scene of slow but age-old struggle: the tenacious tree is probing and poking the rock for cracks and fissures to exploit, while the rock - which probably predates the dinosaurs - holds steadfast and has seen it all before. The tree outgrows its support system and tumbles, to be taken by the sea at the end of this narrow pathway. However, the hardy tree's root-system lives on to sprout a new shoot heading for the light, and the struggle continues.

To learn more:
"During the first months on Atlas, we marked out mining fields and progressively established outposts close to each field, to operate and maintain the harvesters from. My parents were stationed at one of those outposts for maintenance duty. For the remaining years of my scholarship in The Ring, before joining service as a drone operator on the sun-side, I only saw them on rare occasions. One of those was the regular medical check they would undergo, as traces of the raw materials on the machinery they were taking care of could be toxic despite all protective equipment. Our med staff quickly discovered that, curiously, not everyone reacted to such exposure.
After refining the resources, command launched unmanned carriers in closely spaced intervals towards other star systems controlled by the confederation. Given Atlas' thin atmosphere and comparably low mass, our engineers had developed highly efficient launch systems early on, halving our colony's fuel expenses for exports. The saved budget was partially redirected towards local causes, the majority however was shoved into the pockets of the Confederation."

L'exploitation de la marne a fait disparaître le prolongement de l'ancien Luikerweg, et la plate-forme symbolise ce prolongement à partir d'aujourd'hui. De la plate-forme, vous regardez dans la carrière et voyez les lacs avec leur couleur azur profond, causée par le reflet du ciel bleu dans les profondeurs de l'eau. Le point le plus profond de la carrière est de 5m et la Meuse est de 45m à cet endroit.
L'origine de cette carrière est due à ENCI (First Dutch Cement Industry). Dès 1926, l'extraction de la marne très calcaire pour l'industrie du ciment a commencé ici, au cœur de Sint Pietersberg. 900 000 tonnes de ciment y ont été produites, l'imposante cheminée de l'usine ENCI dominant le paysage. Depuis 2018, l'exploitation de la marne a cessé et la nature a retrouvé de l'espace grâce aux Natuurmonumenten.
Marl mining eliminated the extension of the old Luikerweg, and the platform symbolizes this extension to this day. From the platform, you look down into the quarry and see the lakes with their deep azure color, caused by the reflection of the blue sky in the water's depths. The quarry's deepest point is 5 meters, and the Meuse River is 45 meters deep at this point.
This quarry was founded by ENCI (First Dutch Cement Industry). As early as 1926, the extraction of the highly calcareous marl for the cement industry began here, in the heart of Sint Pietersberg. 900,000 tons of cement were produced here, with the imposing chimney of the ENCI factory dominating the landscape. Since 2018, marl mining has ceased, and nature has regained its place thanks to the Nature Monuments.
From ancient times to the present, philosophers have repeatedly emphasized the importance of living a frugal or minimalist life. The ancient Greek philosopher Diogenes said, “True wealth is not in increasing possessions, but in reducing one’s needs.” Mahatma Gandhi pointed to the destructive side of human greed, stating, “The Earth has enough for everyone’s needs, but not enough for everyone’s greed.” From the Buddha to Karl Marx, across the passage of time, many have expressed similar ideas. This minimalist concept in philosophy has greatly influenced the photographer, and its mark is clearly visible in his vision and framing.
The absence of color or the use of minimal composition in framing reflects the photographer’s inclination toward a minimalist approach. The fog, wrapped like a thick winter blanket, creates a serene atmosphere. In this calm and pure dramatic setting, human presence becomes secondary. Before nature, even humanity’s vast achievements become insignificant. That is why the photographer has kept humans and their architectural achievements in the background, framing the scene in a minimalist style. Here, nature is the primary subject—not humans or their constructions.
According to nihilism, or the philosophy of pessimism, human life does not has inherent purpose. Evolutionary theory has shown that humans are an unintended outcome of nature’s evolutionary process. Yet human beings, regarded as the finest of creations, continue to exploit all their knowledge and effort into seeking meaning in life. They establish ever-greater architectural structures upon the heart of nature. In proving their superiority, they seem to challenge nature itself. Viewing nature as an adversary, humanity gradually distances itself further and further from it.

Yup, same sh**, same wavelength, different development however. I like this fire carrot style; first time, never done before (by me). 😊
Man, almost overwhelming how many possibilities there are (now), even for doing "the same" thing, e.g. yellow foliage. But there are differences, nuances, or thing I like or don't (like fringing) to exploit or avoid. I'm trying to stay experimental as long as possible, and to not hone in on something too quickly, I'll do that soon enough I'm sure.
