Had the camera with me today, and I made my way to the top floor of the multi-storey car park at the Golden Square in Warrington which gave me a decent view of the distant coal-powered power station, which is 4 miles WSW of Warrington.


Not being a strong point of mine (landscapes, as I nearly always shoot macro) I'd be interested in what you guys reckon to this one...

Well, I rather like it.
I love the industrial feel of it, and that's a cracking sky.

Cheers for that - as I say, not what I normally try to do.

Thanks for looking.
