Getting the bug...

This is a building that I love the look of (and it's sad to see it how it is now, when I were a lad...). However I can't seem to get a nice pic of it, I've only spent 10mins or so down there so I guess I need to get off my arse and try harder! (If the wife'll let me!

). Just shows though how this photography malarky gets under your skin.

Various shots from across the canal:

A couple of the docks while I was there. I need a nice afternoon to have a walkabout. These were all taken from the new Sainsburys before I did the shop!!!

pic 3 the best. The others are a bit lacking IMHO.

Don't I know it. Hence my desire to get back out there!

As said before in the post your picture thread, some an ND filter will be useful for a shot like this. Movement in the sky gives a very epic feel to something like this. I personally would try and get to the compound and shoot the widest you can? 24mm from the bank of the river on the subject's side might work (guessing here as I can't see what might be in the way, I'm guessing a fence?)
