OK, OK – I’ve held off for as long as I can….. Combining my love of industrial landscapes and my awesome 1957 Cadillac Coupe DeVille, I just couldn’t resist combining the two, so I re visited my favourite location, Sommerville Street, Sunshine and set up the new shot. Here the 57 Cadillac showcases the beautiful angles of the wrap around back windscreen and customised fins in natural light. I love the austere, clinical design feeling this image evokes. To me it’s pure design in all aspects of landscape through to automotive design.

Italians just love their concrete, and once in a while will throw a piece of modernism architecture in an industrial area. I had so much fun in the early morning veering off into these areas and exploring the barren streets. There is the quintessential red and white stripe pole in the far, far distance that smacks of industrialism in Italy.
I love stumbling upon such urban scenes. Steam was floating from the gutter, the clatter of contruction drifted from several buildings, it had a great feeling with the addition of the big red stripe!
this is a fairy i finished the other day,or at least finished for now,i will probably update it next time i work on it.
from i book im working on,i likes it!
Coal drops at Benwell, Newcastle upon Tyne, early Victorian era. / In the Thomas Hair style, 1830’s. HB pencil and watercolour. 140lb paper.
translation: Industrial Landcsape / To me this is just what I like about the Italian landscape, found this area tucked away off a local highway… I basically followed the spaceship like monolith, and it was all there in front of me… red shipping container and all… I’m just really fascinated by this… some may find boring I find it intriguing.

Another image from my ‘green room’ series, shot at ABM. This time I elected to concentrate on light and composition instead of colour. It would have been so easy to crank up the red on the ‘Ladder Safety’ poster… but I like the darker B&W mood here rather more. At full magnification it is still possible to read every word of the ‘Ode to Roger’ pinned on the noticeboard.

1070 views as of November 2009 Once again a collaboration with the amazing, J-Chans Designs (Model Mayhem #542467). This woman is amazingly talented. She designed the costume, the wig and did the makeup. I can’t wait to work with her again! And the incredibly gorgeous model is Elizabeth Maiden (Model Mayhem#401472) This is just a taste of more to come!!!! It was an incredibly successful shoot. And my first outdoor photo shoot in a long time at a very neat location. It’s an old building near an industrial park near my house which burned down a year or so ago. What’s left is a metal and concrete shell. It made for a great setting. I’m so happy about this shoot! This image was featured on the HomePage of RedBubble! Also see: / © Jessica Walker 2009

TOP TEN in the challenge Mechanical Shapes National Slate Museum workshop This is where the workers produced the metal components for all sorts of machines and equipment used at Gilfach Ddu. It’s a very good example of how self-sufficient these workshops were. This, too, is the highest room in the Museum — the height is necessary to house the 9.5 metre-high furnace, the crane and jib.

Dinorwig Quarry closed in 1969. Today – rather than fashioning wagons and forging rails – the workshops tell a very special story: the story of the Welsh slate industry. The Workshops and Buildings are designed as though quarrymen and engineers have just put down their tools and left the courtyard for home. / The National Slate Museum at Llanberis invested a £1.6 million lottery grant into bringing back to life the inheritance of the north Wales slate industry, which roofed the industrial revolution. Now, with imaginative interpretation, the remarkable relics of the slate industry can be understood and enjoyed by the many thousands of visitors to this stunning countryside, on the flanks of Snowdon. / The Museum originally opened to the public in 1972. Many of the sites former quarrymen and engineers were employed to present their craft, while equipment was collected from other Welsh quarries. In later years the quarry’s incline was restore to its former glory, and the Museum re-opened in 1999 with new unique features and facilities. In 2005, the National Slate Museum scooped the Wales Tourist Board’s prestigious ‘Sense of Place Award’. History of Slate / Harnessing the latest 21st century technology, it tells the story of the quarry’s development as pictures, words and music combine in a fascinating introduction to the quarryman’s world. People have been quarrying slate in north Wales for over 1,800 years. Slates were used to build parts of the Roman fort in Segontium in Caernarfon, and in Edward I’s castle at Conwy. But it was with the dawn of the Industrial Revolution in the 18th century that the slate industry really took off. / As small villages such as Manchester exploded into large towns and then cities with the coming of mills and factories, there was an enormous demand for slates to roof the long terraces of houses built as homes for the workers – as well as the foundries and factories themselves. In 1787 the ‘Great New Quarry’ of Dinorwig was opened on the slopes between the present village of Dinorwig and Llyn Peris. By the 1870s Dinorwig quarry employed over 3,000 men. Slate had become one of Wales’s most important industries / Wales produced over four-fifths of all British slates in this period, with Caernarfonshire the biggest producer among all Welsh counties. In 1882 the county’s quarries produced over 280,000 tons of finished roofing slates, and in 1898 the slate trade in Wales as a whole reached its peak with 17,000 men producing 485,000 tons of slate. / It’s a story full of hope and magic as well as sadness and poverty. There are regular showings of the To Steal a Mountain presentation in Welsh, French and German as well as English.
