The problem is that you don't see many people at the top of a blast furnace :-) The site wasn't exactly overrun with visitors - it was an grey, overcast day which probably helped with the lighting of the place. These shots were taken from the level where all the raw materials were put into the top of the furnace. It must have been a very noisy and dusty place to work. Thanks for looking.
