A new building near Georges Dock in Liverpool. I photographed this last week, but the skies were grey so here's another image of the building. Todays problem was the sun was in the top left of the image so had to wait until it was behind a cloud.

So its a classic view taken a million billion times before. But can you blame anyone for wanting a photo here, its a truly mindblowing location.

I had just finished doing the Kepler and Milford tracks back to back when I got here. Totally knackered I spent one night here and probably spent most of the time here trying to take photos. Not ideal having to get up at 6.30am when you just want a day in bed.

To add some interest and something a wee bit different I got some amazing guy to stand around for 30s for this shot.

Its quite heavily processed, maybe overdone I haven't decided yet.

I had the pleasure of meeting up with David and company this weekend on a trip into the gorge for some wildflowers. Unfortunately neither the flowers nor the clouds were very cooperative, but it was still a fun trip and a chance to visit several places I had never been to before.

While I'm probably more of a 'people' photographer than anything else, I do have a fondness for architectural shots as well. :-)

This is the magnificent spiral staircase at the Usher Hall in Edinburgh, of which I've posted a number of other photographs, which you can see here:

Usher Hall Spiral Staircase

I took this after the end of Madeleine Peyroux's concert last night. In most shots I've taken of this, the 'eye' at the top is blindingly white (because it's daylight outside), but the light is more balanced when it is dark outside.

Having said that, most of my shots of this staircase have tended to be a labour of love, involving multiple processing of the same RAW file, as well as numerous adjustment layers, combined with layer masking...and this one is no exception.

However, it a magnificent piece of architecture and well worth the undignified position I found myself in while I was taking this shot. Hey, you have to suffer for your art, even if it's only some mild ridicule from passers-by. :-)
