Another image from my Anthropocene project, the Tower Colliery, Hirwaun. Opened in 1878, the colliery ran for 130yrs with the last owners being a group formed by the workforce. Despite being the last deep mine in Wales to be closed in 2008, the historic and treasured site, was transformed into the Phoenix and Tower Coaster in the early 2020s, making it South Wales first Zipline World https://www.zipworld.co.uk/location/tower 2019 marked the last time for The Valleys miners to meet one last time to reminisce about the colliery. Paying a very fitting tribute to this historic site. Documented by WalesOnline, please take a moment to read this wonderful write-up which includes filmed interviews of this momentous occasion. https://www.instagram.com/p/CQNSAwWhG3f/?utm_source=ig_web_button_share_sheet #imageoftheday #historical #towercolliery #valleyminers #deepmine #hirwaun #regeneration #minehistory #zipline #zipworldtower #zipworld #towercoaster #southwales #documentaryphotography #documentary (at Tower Colliery) https://www.instagram.com/p/CQNSAwWhG3f/?utm_medium=tumblr

My 'Anthropocene' project was inspired by the works of world-renowned photographer Edward Burtynsky, and the impact our consumerism is having on the planet. Despite some areas I wanted to photograph being inaccessible due to my mobility issues, I still managed to put together a cohesive body of work, which highlights how human activity is impacting on the world around us. Please feel free to head over to my Anthropocene photo album, to view the body of work. (at Aberdare, Rhondda Cynon Taff) https://www.instagram.com/p/CQKIYKZBVmv/?utm_medium=tumblr

I thought this image was documenting the street life of the homeless in Cardiff City Centre, but when I started to edit, I realised the dog was the one communicating to the camera. Hugely grateful that they allowed me to take this image. I enjoyed talking with them and learning about the survival of the homeless, and the trials, prejudice and both mental & physical abuse they are subjected to daily through ignorance of the abuser . #streetphotography #imageoftheday #homeless #homelessness #blackandwhite #blackandwhitephotography #dog #canine https://www.instagram.com/p/CQI_KGmBFFP/?utm_medium=tumblr

Spring Has Arrived! Daffodils are such a joy to see, not just because of their vibrant colour, but because they herald the coming of spring. They are the first perennials to flower after the winter frost, and they have medicinal qualities also. Not only do they contain chemicals said to help reduce pain, but research is underway Infact, research is underway into it's possible use in the treatment of Alzheimer's disease. To ensure this image portrayed the transition from winter to spring, only the daffodils were to be in colour. #imageoftheday #daffodils #narcissus #yellow #springiscoming #josephparryscottage #invertedcolors #pain #alzheimers #medicinalresearch #Mafanwy (at Joseph Parry's Cottage) https://www.instagram.com/p/CQEh2TzAIon/?utm_medium=tumblr
