A point well made Neil... great shot love the bckdrop all works so well superb detail excellent mono

I agree with the above comments: you have got the message over so well, both in your commentary, but also with this excellent shot.
The detail is superb and the character and cares of the chap comes over so well.
The inclusion of the pit head workings really presses home the message.
Ronnie.
In complete agreement here! Plus it's a stunning portrait!

Well done Neil, top composition. Our govenment have given all our money to the banks for bonuses, even though they caused this **** in the first place. Then they put up the price of food, gas electric and petrol, but stop wage rises. Then they say we should pay the banks the money back we have borrowed. What money, they've already got it. Then they decide to print more money to give to the banks, which they say will help us. HOW? I hear politicians saying they understand how hard it is for us, but I don't see Banker losing there bonuses,or politicians taking pay cuts.
The them and us society. See you tonight Neil and we will sort the world out then. Gerry
Don't get me started on Foreign aid ?
All being well Neil,my daughter will get her teaching degree from uni' next year.I have been telling her since she started to get the hell out of this country,and use her degree in Australia,New Zealand or anywhere else,as long as it is not in the UK.She didn't agree at first,but everynight watching the doom and gloom on the news,she is getting round to that way of thinking.Anyway,things will get better soon here.Cameron has found a solution to the mess we are in.He has told everyone who is in debt,to pay it back and things will all be hunky dory again !! I was down at Leith Docks recently and saw a shipload of illegal immigrants.I told them they could not land here and I would get the police.They said it was OK.They had been here for six months and were so fed up with the place they were going back home !!

Great meaningful image and text. I think that Greece is in a far worse state than we are though
Hi Neil, its a cracking portrait especially with the pit head winding gear in the background.
Its about time this government started to think about the ordinary working class folk rather than saving banks etc and keeping us in the EC. Just so they can feather their nest when they lose their jobs in government like the last. NONE of our MP's EVER listen to the masses and take note of what is really needed to make our country Great again. I AM SICK OF THE LOT OF THEM.

A wonderful portrait, Neil, enhanced by the pit head winding gear in the b/g. Agree with everything you and others have said!! We lost our business that we worked hard for in January 2009 due to the economic crisis and our employees lost their jobs!! No help for us from anybody, but then we were only a small business not a bank or multi national!!! It's about time the people in power started to think about putting the 'Great' back into Britain. !!!!!!!!!!!!
Take care, Pauline
Superb portrait Neil, really works well as a mono. I have to agree with your comments, I wont start as if I do ill be here all night typing

I agree, excellent character study.

Such a fantastic portrait Neil - I agree with your sentiments entirely - how long have we ordinary folks been saying it all though - non-one listens to us...............hard times and we might wake up tomorrow and find the world has gone bankrupt too. Hey ho...............
Sorry I missed this one the best b/w shot I have seen for a while the detail is amazing great shot
mike
Great piece of combining of images Neil, it makes your observations all the more powerful, BTW the shot of the old fellow is just superb. As to your rant, I fully agree, the trouble is nobody in the top management knows anything about the work done in their factories, etc., they are all money folks poured out of the same mould, as for the politicians, don't get me started!
Rgds., Jim
a fantastic portrait !
and thanks for your rant, I have been in the motor industry and trade all m life so I know what you feel like. we are facing a world where only the whafflers and bakers count. Only you can't fix a thing with paper!!!
Great image works very well in mono.
Agree with your write up, the country is sinking fast.
Great shot Neil.
David
If we can see the problems, why can't the politicians. That's what they are paid for (I think).
A terrific portrait Neil, I wholeheartedly agree with your sentiments, this country is going to the dogs and has been doing so for years!
Hear hear! So much character and contemplation captured here. Really 'feel' this image. Thankyou Neil
