Coffee Break
Here the workers move in
close to one of the braziers that gave off some heat in the large
cold engineering works on this cold February morning.
Here is the original
photograph that I took:

thought sepia seemed seemed appropriate for an image that looks as
if it might have been taken in the early 1900s. It was, in
fact, taken in 1993.

image above, it was not very obvious that the brazier was lit, so I
made the image at the top of this page, which is mainly sepia but
retains some of the original colour:
