The Breaker Series N1
Thanks indeed everyone for your personal comments and also your support from selected groups...Only administrator invite's can I accept....because the max.number of the groups....:-(
This was taken at Rye Beach. I shot this at 30 seconds using the Lee ND 10 (big Stopper).
Converted in PS and in channel mixer I duplicated Agfa black and white film.
I have found the Big Stopper to be a better ND filter than the B&W ND110 I was using. No color cast like the B&W and the colors really pop with it.
View in Lightbox.
Panoramic scene taken with the iPhone.
Almost all of the images in this set are taken on the right side of the image and look out to the left over the breakers to Lake Michigan.
At this area of coast, there is a beach along the lake for most of the distance between here and downtown Chicago. The beaches are bordered by a bike and running path. Lake Shore Drive runs parallel to the paths. This particular section does not have a beach, so the paths run along the lake.
Have as good of a Monday as you can!

Ever wonder how all that seaweed gets onto the shore?
Another angle of Teignmouth Pier on Christmas Eve morning. The waves were breaking really well and this is my favourite from this side of the pier.
This one has been processed slightly differently to my previous effort and as a result the whole scene is slightly brighter. Whether its more realistic or not is a matter of debate but I think I prefer it.
Process work for Stone Breaker. This is a small amount of the work I do outside creating the work digitally. Hundreds of ideas don't see the light of day.

Old ice breakers that were used on the Buffalo river and surrounding creeks, they look, sound and drive like tanks. It's had to believe but these things actually float ! Or at least they used too lol
I was inspired to go shoot these by a couple photos ScottSmith14227 put up here of the newer ice breaker used nowadays.

Every boy who grew up in the 1960s had a collection of Matchbox cars - and these (what's left of them) are mine! I was sorting out the garage a week or two back and I knocked over the big glass sweet jar that I kept them in for years and smashed it.
As I picked up the toys the memories came flooding back and I sort of re-bonded with them; and what better way to re-bond? - set up a photo shoot with them! I just felt these scruffy, over played with tatty remains of cars needed to be in a Matchbox breakers yard - all stacked up on top of each other just like the real thing!
Towering over the local landscape the Locust Summit breaker of the Philadelphia and Reading Coal & Iron Company stands silent. The breaker, built in 1930, was capable of processing 15000 tons in a 24-hour period, and operated for a quarter century before being permanently shut down. The breaker stood for another 47 years until it was demolished in 2002. The complex housed many treasures, including CNJ 0-6-0 113, which worked at the facility from 1953 through 1960, and languished at Locust Summit for another 20 years before being moved to the Wilmington & Western.
Here the breaker is largely intact in 1992. The large shed to the right of the breaker houses dual rotary car dumpers. Why would a facility that loads outbound coal for shipment to customers need rotary car dumpers? The answer lies in the function of an anthracite breaker as a processing plant, and not necessarily as a part of a specific mine. The breaker separated rock from coal, and then sorted the coal into various sizes for shipment to market. The Reading delivered mine-run coal from various mines in the region, and then hauled an equivalent amount of finished product away from the breaker. This is one of only a few on-line industries that received and shipped the same commodity.
