What, no picture of The Howard?



I've seen most of those buildings so many times in ePhotozine reviews!

Some people call me 'strange'.
I prefer 'unconventional'.
But I'm willing to compromise and accept 'eccentric'.

The first two and last two appeal to me.

First 2 and last 4 for me, great perspective and colours on the first one. Is 2 the same building as 8 ?
Great set as a whole.
Some fascinating architecture going on there.
Don't think I've ever seen a shot of any of them before.
👏👏👏👏
I know what i like, If not always why.

Well observed scenes from Sheffield with a good mix of architecture mixed with quirky corners. Great light and excellent quality all round. One of these days I must revisit the city of my father's birth - with my camera. I love seeing your city photo walks and those of some other photographers on PUF.

I go fairly often but it's to see family who don't appreciate it when you keep stopping to photograph things. Nice that Parkhill flats are getting a reprieve. My son in law always has a harsh word or two for it. That quasi pyramidal one of the cheesegrater really hits the spot for me.
Both the *istDS and the K5 are incurably addicted to old glass

Lovely set of images. I loved it all. #Cheese Greater Tree is awesome. The technique used is awesome. Thanks for sharing where I get to know new techniques.

I'd like that. Barrie might also fancy a visit sometime. I know we've discussed the possibility of going to the Yorkshire Sculpture Park. The only PUF member from the South Yorks group I've met is Neil several times.

The symmetry of no2 with the dark sky is good and I really like the upward angle and colour of the last one; Parkhill Flats. Overall an interesting and fascinating set!

#2 then #11 then #5 for me in that order, the colour in #11 really pops

I like how the juxtapositions work in 4 and 8, giving a more personal view (to my eyes) of urban elements. 11 has great composition and colour.

That Cheese Grater is one heck of an architect's fancy!
