Down in the Hole

September 26, 2022

Tasked with generating some new imagery for one of Britain’s largest construction materials companies, I spent two days last week, in full orange PPE, down at the bottom of couple of very large quarries. There was little time or possibility to plan or arrange anything so it was simply a question of “shooting from the hip” and capturing whatever looked interesting, while Paddy the quarry supervisor kept in touch with the drivers of the 30 tonne dumper trucks by radio and kept a watchful eye on me to make sure I didn’t come to any harm. Fortunately, on both days, the weather was on my side and once the morning light had cleared the rim of the quarry, it backlit all the dust and made for some quite striking, if technically challenging, images.
