Mancunian Memories Photo

Photographer’s Note

The last of my old postings for a bit. I found the negative of this shot in my archive, I wish I'd carried on being so methodical, there's so many things I can't find.

Hi Richard

Very well spotted "way back then" ;-) beautiful lines and reflections - I wonder if this fine building still exists.
Well choosen angle indeed.

I recognise this, its just before the train station... i often thought that this building looked photegenic, but i never saw the shot i wanted. The curves really make this building so much more interesting. well done.

very nice composition Richard, i like the graphism here - all those lines and curves, the picture is a bit soft, but still a nicely captured

Magnificent photo - I especially like the tight crop.

Excelent architecture photo! The BW works perfectly here. Neat Image could help you reduce the noise and soften the textures.

Old or not, this is really something very nice, Richard.I like the curve and the reflection in the window.

very good lines
reflections of the other building are making the picture.

great,

very interesting picture- a Escher type print...!!!

It is clear that this is a good architectural detail shot. I like the abstract nature of the shot. It is a little dirty though (dust lines appaent in the top right of the frame) and the scan quality isn't great leaving us with a very grainy look. Cutting through all of that though it is still an interesting shot.

Hi Richard,
I love architecture shots, espcially close-ups. The lines give this photo movement. Personally, I would like it to be more contrasty and darker.
Where is (was?) this building?
