Title: Mancunian Shadows
Post by: Summicron on June 06, 2009, 04:33:47 PM
As far as buildings go, this architectural gem hardly qualifies as a skyscraper, from any distance it becomes lost by the surrounding buildings, but close too, it dwarfs other stately buildings, yes I do like the building, because it contrasts well with the older architecture, one gives scale to the other, the characters of the buildings stand out well against each other. Now the late afternoon shadows add strength to the setting giving an impression of a firm foundation that lends support to this modern edifice.

A very unusual design!  And once again the play of light and shadow is striking.

Interesting Image.  The buildings show each other off as you say. 

What is the new one used for?

Well Done.
