urban

I spent an hour or two wandering around Leeds this afternoon, didn't take many shots.  I've added a few from today to some photos I took some time ago, to start a gallery on the City Centre.  It's changing so much now that I suspect a lot of these places will be very different in a few years.

Some more pictures from the Bridgewater Place development in Leeds now much of the shell has been built round the central core it's much clearer exactly how big and imposing the place will look when it's completed.

These shots were taken on my EOS 5D with a Tamron 17-35mm lens I've not used the lens much as something that wide has limited uses but it seems capable of producing great images.

This panorama consists of six images shot from the top of the Castel Sant'Angelo and stitched together using a combination of Panorama Factory and Photoshop.

To view the image you'll need the QuickTime Plugin from Apple.

I've transferred a number of images of Bridgewater Place in Leeds from my old website they were taken back in November 2005 as a project for a photography course.  I intend to take some more over the next couple of weeks to illustrate how the build is progressing.

Some more shots that were originally taken for a photography course and have now been migrated from my old site.  The purpose here was to provide a number of monochrome shots with a theme that explored the use of patterns.  With no inspiration and two days to go to the deadline I took myself into Leeds on a rainy day and decided not to leave until the shots were taken.  This is the result... I got some funny looks kneeling on the floor and a number of people apologised for getting in my shot, when I asked the builder if I could photograph his boots I think he thought I was mad!
