Big Pit

A very strong image. Like your palette of colours too.

Thanks Ruth, it was done as a pre=cursor to a series of urban decay, but I haven't got started on any more yet.

Interesting image. I'm afraid your headgear would not work, you have the sheave wheels in the wrong position - the centre is at the intersection of front vertical legs and the angled support legs at the bottom of the top frame. Have a look at your reference photo again.

Thanks Malcolm, but as always with technical subjects, locos etc there is always what we call a rivert counter. However I know what you mean as far as accuracy is concerned and I am not an expert on the pit machines, so fair enough. Haven't a clue where the photo is.
