Following a personally devastating darkroom fire in the nineties, this is one of the few surviving images from my early work. It was shot during the steel strike of 1981 outside the Hadfields ‘East Hecla’ works in Sheffield, nowadays the site of the Meadowhall shopping centre. This is a copy of a smoke damaged print, so please excuse the quality.  Kodak Tri-X @ 800 ASA - Nikon F2, 20mm f3.5 Nikkor
