Kyle McDougall (August 19, 2024): I’m back at Dinorwic Quarry, with the large format camera, for a day of exploring and shooting.

Dinorwic quarry is a large former slate quarry, now home to the Welsh National Slate Museum, located between the villages of Llanberis and Dinorwig in Wales. At its height at the start of the 20th century, it was the second largest slate quarry in Wales, after the neighbouring Penrhyn quarry near Bethesda.
