Default Photo Shoot @ Old Colliery

I was driving around last night when I ended up driving around the Whitehaven area. I then remembered about Haig Pit which was the last coal mine to work the Whitehaven area. There is an old steam winder which has been preserved that stands outside. Perfect location for a photo shoot with my new HTC Desire!

Sadly, I got a little carried away! <- Yes, I know.....I always do!















And a little B&W Edit:

Good location, but pictures arent great, try turning the wheels the other way so you see the wheel not the tyre tread

Also worth trying to get more light onto the car itself, to make it stand out more against the mean and moody backdrop, could look REALLY good.

This sort of thing:
