A lovely image, well done Kris.

A very personal and observant set of images, no doubt photographing these was a terrific therapeutic experience contrasting with what I imagine to be a stressful day job. The Martin Parr references resonate with me too, but in a positive way.
When photographers submit a range of images for others to see, as here, many like to pick out personal favourites for comment but I generally prefer to take an overall view of the set as that somehow demonstrates how the photographer's mind is working. But I must say I love the graphic lines of 2 and 3 and the selective piece of Blackpool Tower with the lift perfectly placed to satisfy even the most particular of composition experts. The passing seagull helps too.

Thanks for the comments. My own favourite is No.1. The wedding photographer was a woman, sheer luck they toddled onto the bridge while I was there.

Northern Spire.
Now open, Sunderland's new bridge over the River Wear. Test drive by a new bride, groom and wedding photographer.
Cameras Pentax K3 + K5. Lenses 70-200mm + 16-50mm.

Artistic architecture and engineering artistically photographed...… sheer delight.

Lubbly jubbly. Fantastic action shots, I particularly love the prop blur on the Torcano. There's a guy in our camera club at Durham who goes to Cad West regularly and gets amazing photos, but he's not a Pentax user.
I also go to the same area but to photograph the narrow gauge steam railways of North Wales, including the Talyllyn which is very close to this spot. A more leisurely and relaxing occupation.

You make a speciality out of doing this style, and very artistic it is too. This latest offering is superb. Keep 'em coming.
