The mine was sunk in 1914 with production not starting until 1916, its roadways and coal face stretching out 4 miles under the "Irish Sea"
For almost 70 years that Haig was in production, it was beset with the problems of Firedamp "Methane" ,79 men died in explosions before it was closed in 1986.
The bodies of 13 men still lie entombed after a coal face was sealed in 1927 to prevent further explosions.

There are some rapeseed fields in our countryside this year. This is not a fact to hit the headlines, of course; rather, I should pass under silence the fact that I have seen those fields blooming until they have become glowing golden patches nestled in the green plain without even thinking of capture them with my camera. Shame upon me for my carelessness. All the flowers are gone now, but I had managed to set up a small sunset session before they were utterly lost. The scene was very peaceful and endowed with an enchanted ambiance - from time to time a breath of wind brushed the flowers and a multitude of tiny voices merged in a solemn choir, raising a prayer towards the sky.
It was not a great sunset, really: the sunset in itself was not too good - great clouds to begin with, but the sun was stubbornly hiding himself, so the golden rapeseed flowers were a bit spoiled; and the white flowers of the locust trees as well. Nevertheless I tried some shooting - there are some little magics in my postprocessing toolkit after all, so I hoped to get some decent pictures anyway.
I have worked in postprocessing this bracketing for quite some time and I have mixed feelings about it, but I am afraid that this is the best result I can get from the original photos; moreover, I am just starting using Darktable and I assume that my results there are definitely less than suboptimal. However in my workflow postprocessing is a voyage of the soul, an adventure I enjoy just as much as I enjoyed the actual shooting - and Darktable is part of all this. I envision postprocessing as a chance to interpret my shots by endowing them with my inner vision and my mood & feelings in that precious moment. This can take some time, and the road is paved with wrong moves and blind alleys; but here it is, at last. I am aware that the result of this long creative process is far from perfect (in other words, I have still much more to learn than I have already learnt ;-), but I think it is decent enough to be shared with other fellows photographers.
I have obtained this picture by blending an exposure bracketing [-1.3/0/+1.3 EV] by luminosity masks in the Gimp (EXIF data, as usual, refer to the "normal exposure" shot), then I added some final touches with Nik Color Efex Pro 4. I used Darktable to process the raw files.

The central heating unit for the Goetheanum and some of the surrounding buildings is situated there. Aside from the base of the first Goetheanum, this is the first concrete building built by Rudolf Steiner. It is connected to the main building by an underground tunnel and the heating pipes pass through this to all the rooms. In a lecture on the subject, Rudolf Steiner shows how the forms of this building are developed out of the forms of the first Goetheanum. At the same time one finds the language of forms present in the later concrete building already pre-empted here.

ABOUT THIS IMAGE
"Water Play"
Moonstone Beach, Cambria is a great place for shopping, gallery visits, exploration, walking, and for that matter any photography. Wide expanses of sandy beaches and rock outcroppings as well as many species of wildlife. Of course, never forget the restaurants. This day I had just finished a day sitting the Gallery at Marina Square. There was still a bit of light left, so I headed north where I could get some practice with ND Filters. I used several different 3,6 and 10 stop ND Filters experimenting for different effects. I hope you enjoy. Thank you for looking.

Leeds, England
amazing when colours changes as it sets, as it bids farewell to another day..
life, like the sunset it goes on...
but it promises a new day,
you just have to leave one day at a time. ...
never giving up,
but always looking forward for a new day,
might not be a brighter one,
atleast a new day to atleast correct the mistakes of yesterday. . .
