Valves

These old valves are in the wash building at Brazeau Collieries.  It was fairly dark in there and I needed to use a 30 second exposure to properly capture the scene on Kodak Tri-X Pan film.  I was using a long 300mm lens to get in tight on the subject and create a little compression.  Plus development in HC-110 pumped up the highlights nicely.  Its hard to imagine that it has been almost 70 years since these valves were operated......
