mine

There's a big hole in the ground near where I live. A surface lignite mine. The same lens that brought me close to the little elephant pulls this giant machine closer.

At the same time as I enjoyed taking photos zoomed in very far, I also found out how to stitch a few pictures together to get a panoramic. In this case a view from the edge of the mine. Restricted to text width it's a bit small. But in reality it's quite big, I assure you! Maybe just open it in its own tab and / or turn your smartphone sideways to get a better impression.
