Tall and wet
Recently, London’s winter has been one of storms from the Atlantic with strong winds and driving, torrential rain. One saving grace is that it’s been relatively mild.
These monochrome abstracts are of the newest office block here in Hammersmith, west London – tall, with acres of glass clasped together with metal.
On this grey and sodden day, the rain almost stuck to the facades and my camera lens was spattered as I peered upwards. When summer comes, this building will look sleek and piercing against a burning blue sky… we hope.

Strong images Mike but I am really drawn to the balance in the composition of the first image with the really shallow d.o.f.

Thanks James. I agree, mainly because of the three-part symmetry. That does make me happy!

Thank you Richard! I must go back to the building on a blazing clear day… the contrast would be quite marked.

Thank you Noeline, I was pleased with how that turned out. A lot of craning upwards as the rain was falling! A very Happy New Year to you, by the way :-)
