EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the haunting beauty of Dinorwic Quarry in Snowdonia, Wales. The talented photographer, Larry Platner, has skillfully captured the essence of this abandoned slate mine pit and its surrounding landscape. As you gaze at the image, your eyes are immediately drawn to the majestic mountains that tower above the quarry. Their rugged peaks seem to touch the clouds, creating a dramatic backdrop against which this forgotten industrial site is set. The remnants of buildings cling precariously to sheer cliffs, their crumbling walls telling tales of a once-thriving mining community. Nature has slowly reclaimed what was once man-made; moss-covered ruins stand as silent witnesses to a bygone era. The contrast between nature's resilience and human intervention is strikingly evident in this photograph. The harshness of the quarry's barren terrain is softened by patches of snow that blanket parts of its surface, adding an ethereal quality to the scene. Larry Platner's lens has expertly captured both the grandeur and desolation present in this forgotten corner of Wales. This print serves as a poignant reminder that even amidst abandonment and decay, there remains an undeniable beauty waiting to be discovered.
