Three hundred and sixty-odd days of 2008, day 70
This is one of the "Fairy Caves," the old, abandoned coke ovens of Aspen Colliery in Oswaldtwistle, where I grew up.
They’re full of graffiti, rubbish and needles now, but when I was a kid they held a mystique that never quite went away – until I saw them in the cold light of a windy Lancashire day after wading through mud and dodging dog turds to get to them. In that light, they’re much less interesting.
It was hard to get the balance right in this shot. The sky was going to be blown whatever I did.
