Nathan, the best I can offer for a sense of scale is the railed walkway
you can see towards the right. 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.

Steve

Hi Steve,

The first two images do indeed have a human touch :-) But in general, I 
think I would have liked to see some with a person somewhere in the 
image, to make the scale of the place more apparent.
