    This is great Brian! I wonder if a DSLR could give such range and pick out the shadow detail that you have?

    Brian is judging the black and white category so there might be a conflict of intrests, but I’m sure he’ll take it as a compliment !

    I could not stop looking at all the details, and was totally “inside” the foundry with its inner life,

    How fantastic !

    lovely…. I remember twenty years + ago assisting a friend of mine doing a photo shoot at a foundry and the beauty inherent in such a hot, dusty and dangerous environment you have captured. I especially enjoyed the “tradtional” aspect to the shot, large format, black and white, the whole deal.
