Coal mine du Gouffre - Stairway to Heaven - 16

Almost has something mystical ...

The black coal dust does one more thing, thanks Udo!

Impressive

Belle lumière bien captée!**

Superb work.

uriges Plätzchen

For me, this is the best image of the series (so far). Your exposure is just perfect, allowing the sunshine to light up the interior perfectly, while still maintaining superb detail in the shadow areas.

The composition is spot on. I like the way the stairs lead the eye up to a promise of yet more lovely light on the next floor.

It should by rights, be a dark and gloomy place.........but opened up to the light, I think it's quite beautiful.

I wish I'd taken it :-)

You described well, what I tried to achieve ;-) Many thanks Keith!

Genial belichtet...das ist so ausgewogen und fast romantisch...Du solltest Bücher füllen:)

Hast Du einen Verlag? Ich komme ;-))) Danke für die Blumen, schönen Abend noch!

Beau cliché très intéressant !

attractive place & shot → interesting picture

Excellent!

Stairway to Heaven ... maybe. But a coal mine? Then 'descent into hell' I would have thought!
Fine shot either way!

You're right Andy, thanks a lot ;-)
