A nice gritty bit of misplaced utopia. Am I right in thinking English Heritage listed this building, Andrew?
Best wishes,
Andrew

It seems like a sympathetic treatment you have given here. A nice tidy composition and effective mono conversion which suits the dystopian nature of the subject.
Would you have still used mono on the opposite face of the building with all the coloured panels added during the Urban Splash refurbishment?
I note the top of the tree is clipped off. Was that so that you could maintain the camera at a flattish angle in order to keep the vertical lines parallel?

that's how to make a boring subject come to life! Excellent.
Best Regards, Larry.

Hi Andrew, yes it is listed, it is a beautiful set of buildings in my view and I am glad they have saved them.

The new parts are nice, I will try them next. Yep struggled to get it all in with only 16mm at the wide end to work with.

A stunning capture of these oldish flats, and it's a listed building?
