Coal Dust.
Looking west at mountains of coal sitting on the north side of Kings Dock, Swansea/Abertawe, Wales. Coal dust covering the old dockside rail lines.
From what I am told and have seen mentioned, the coal was either domestic coal for export maybe to Ireland, or imported Polish coal for blending with domestic coal.. on this day it just all looked abandoned. (thanks to Duncan McEvoy: www.flickr.com/photos/99466199@N05/)
Old rail lines feeding onto the north edge of Kings Dock, Swansea/Abertawe. The lines now covered with tons of coal that I assume was for export..
Taken with bulk rolled film, cos I was a cheap student, likely processed for free at the college developing lab by me, probably not washed properly for that added grainy crazing effect on the negative, never printed, stored for 28 years, scanned badly with my supercool Nikon CoolscanIV, pretty much ignored, then scanned again properly, processed in Lightroom.. and brought to you in it glorious hi-def graininess on the world wide web..
Film: HP5 PLUS 400 ASA
