Limestone mine, Norway - 2016

[Bgo_photo]

For 65 years this mine employed up to 70 workers at a time. They mined limestone which was used in paper production, agriculture and asphalt production. It was once considered to be one of the best sources for limestone in western Norway. Time has, however, largely stood still here for the past 30 years. It was therefore truly a unique experience to get to visit this place, where so much has been left behind.http://s1160.photobucket.com/user/BergenUnderground/media/IMG_0038-1_zpszad4rvoh.jpg.html

Great photos BGO, I would love to see more. Welcome to the forum.

If you could pop a space between each photos next time that would be great as it makes it easier on the eye to view them.

Like that a lot, looks like there's plenty detail to get absorbed in.

An interesting mine that. The lack of colours and added darker lines give a strange feel to the photographs.

The site must be remote? I'm guessing because the equipment is still there.
