My interest was two-fold. Firstly, I liked the colours of the insulation panels in combination with the lines and angles created by the new building and the tram flyover. Secondly, it is an area that I photographed prior to the demolition work.
Many years ago I photographed the doors of Cornish Engineering in Popham Street and this was my first experience of creating panels of linked images. Before this I had mainly concentrated on individual landscapes and the Cornish Engineering set was real turning point in my photographic output. I guess there is also a value in these photographs now the building has been demolished. The set can be viewed here.
In addition to the above set is a series of reflections in the nearby city canal. This is a subject that I have taken many times over the years but due to the nature of water movement no two images are ever the same.
All these photographs needed a processing push to draw out the colours (the dehaze slider works well for this) and I have included one shot that shows some of the context for the more abstract compositions:
