The Super Pit in Kalgoorlie, Western Australia. It is the largest gold open pit in the country and produces 850 000 ounces of gold each year. The trucks at the bottom of the pit (on the right) are 500 metres below ground level and each truck weighs about 400 tonnes when loaded.

Another view of the giant gold open pit mine. Not surprisingly, the mine is operational 24-hours a day, 7 days a week.

Virtually everything about this old cart is made out of wood. A horse would have pulled it around the streets of Gloucestershire up until the 1970s. This graveyard of old abandoned vehicles was found near the centre of Stroud in 1981.

Back in 1981, when I was an O-level photography student at the Mid-Gloucestershire Technical College, I stumbled across a field near the centre of Stroud full of old, broken, ex-travellers equipment. The sepia tint to this image has been added in Photoshop. Ilford FP4 film, college Pentax Spotmatic camera with standard lens.

This exposure was made from a slightly different angle from the previous one. It shows the gentle valleys of Gloucestershire and how the houses seem to harmlessly mingle with the trees. The date is the late 1970s. Ilford FP4 film, 35mm camera

I'm not sure of the exact location, but this view shows the hills, trees and houses in one of the Gloucestershire valleys in the late 1970s.

The West Bay railway station in Dorset saw its last train back in 1930. Today, some eight-four years later, the station still looks in good shape. It now houses The Tea Station .
