A much photographed building, this I took a 6:00 in May 2009 before I boarded for Paris.

Very nice Kev and another one time record holder; for largest single span roof. I really like this sort of exposed structure - I must dig out some photos of Dresden station.

Cheers Pete please dig em out would love to see them, I have a soft spot for roofs. I well remember an old garage in Kidderminster back in the late 70's that had a Belfast Trussed Roof, all timber. absolutely lovely, sadly I never had chance to photograph it has it was burning down when I was there, and I was trying to put it out

There is a building in Worcester that is supposed to have held some record for large single span roof ... It's the TA building now, but used to be part of the vinegar works I think...
Nice shot buddy, it's not an angle i would chose, but I think it works quite well!

Love that shot, Kev! The sunlight on the left is magic.

that's just lazy Kev lol, you could have stopped and whipped the camera out hahah.

In a previous job I used to help design suspended ceilings so i have a soft spot for roof spaces also, most well known I done was canary wharf after the IRA bombed it

The angle Hamish is very deliberate and I have had many comments about it, for me I love it, it makes you look at the angle you probably look at in real life, nearly everyone tilts their head slightly to look at something. Only photographers have a spirit level in their head. There go the rules again.

 

[Kev Pugh]

Davie, you opportunist, and had I been a little more on the ball I probably could have got a shot of it falling down.......as I was running like the road runner in the opposite direction LOL

 

[Davie Hudson]

you would have had to catch me up
