Another of those shots that needed taking for enhancing in LR, its a shame about the foreground though. Nature either works with you or you have to work with what you've got.

This building is/was a well known department store in Reading which has been closed since 2013 after 138 yrs of trading. If you had to get a school uniform in Reading this was where you ended up. Not a lot of people are aware that it also has the Holybrook running underneath it.

Tried the Samyang 8mm on the IR camera to see if there was going to be any problems with it, looks okay so far, not a vivid pink like one of my past efforts, which I'm trying to forget about.

How do you make bridge construction look sexy, you don't, you just record it. The cow lane bridges in Reading are a notorious bottleneck in the rush hour, and something is being done about it, no longer will there be traffic chaos caused by this old outdated bridge.

This is with a light meter app on an iPhone 4, that I used to base the exposure on to get the final image.

The original scan of the negative on a flat-bed scanner, resolution was not up to what I was expecting and there was a lot of dust from the scanner platen.
