With this 201st upload I begin to lose the initial images that I uploaded. "Katie" was actually the first image that I posted here and I am reposting it primarily because it is one of my very favorite ones. I think that I will be posting less frequently from here on out. The good news is that I will continue to post to my blog at glsmyth.wordpress.com, where I have virtually unlimited space for my images.
The famous glass house at Lalbaug, Bangalore. I keep coming back to my night photography. This one shot on a Saturday, 630-730 when this structure is lit up as you see it..above.
Please - no awards, photos, group invites or graphics!

Luossavaara-Kiirunavaara Aktiebolag (LKAB) is a Swedish mining company. The company mines iron ore at Kiruna and at Malmberget in northern Sweden. The company was established in 1890, and has been 100% state-owned since the 1950s. In 1918 the company purchased the Francis Flower business in the UK which included the GBSS processing plant at Scunthorpe steelworks.
Ground Granulated Blast furnace Slag (GGBS) is produced by quenching molten iron slag from a blast furnace in water or steam, to produce a glassy, granular product that is then dried and ground into a fine powder. It replaces up to 70% of the Portland Cement in concrete, and can significantly reduce CO2-emissions. Francis Flower produced GGBS in Scunthorpe on the grounds of British Steel upgrading their blast furnace slag. LKAB is also a significant supplier of highly upgraded iron ore products to British Steel, the first deliveries were made in the 1930’s. Francis Flower was the second largest supplier of GGBS in the UK.
The plant in the near background is operated by Calumite Limited which supplies glassmakers in the UK and overseas with Calumite, a refined blast furnace slag. Calumite is a glassy calcium-alumina-silicate that is used as a raw material in all types of soda-lime-silica glassmaking.
Woke up and headed out while it was still dark and cold this morning to watch the sunrise and get out while the world was still quiet. This one snapped after I'd already been out a few hours. So is this my worm?

Reversal Process on 4x5 Paper Negative
Fomabrom (N)
DIY wooden box camera
Industar-23 110mm f4.5 (Moskva-2)
Reversal process based the bleaching and re-lighting and re-development of the negative. Concentrated hydrogen peroxide mixed with citric acid is the bleaching agent, so low toxicity is ensured within careful and reasonable handling of the chemicals. The white parts of the image are made of bleached silver.
Many thanks to Joe van Cleave for making a video about the process and explaining the details of the process.

This really is a mysterious place. Many of the places I explore the various elements and artifacts are fairly easy to discern their one time use but this place is quite mysterious and even has something of a sinister feel to it.
