burnt embers

I thought I had missed this shot. About a year ago they were doing the steam curing of pipe linings at this same location and it was wonderfully lit. I did not have a camera with me. But, a few weeks ago, they were back at it, at the same location. This time I had a pocket film camera with me.

While the steam is what this shot was going to be all about, I must say my favourite part is the shadow of the pick-axe.
