These are terrific pictures of the North Wales slate quarry industry Andrew. But more than being great photos, they are also a valuable record of a past industry seen in its dying state.
Pictorially all these three sets of images are first class and well worth looking at again and again.

What a brilliant collection of pictures these three sets have been! Have you thought about exhibiting them? Ffotogallery in Penarth might be worth approaching?

As good as it gets Andrew.

No. 6 is a class act, a winner and puts you into the hall of fame as far as I'm concerned.

Best regards

Thanks everyone for your kind and encouraging remarks.

The feedback I get from folks on this site means more to me than you could imagine.

The site adds another dimension to my hobby: I see the picture, take the shot, process it then post it here. Images need no longer fade away and die in a box in the attic...
