Scholes Sunrise
Photo: Dave (Nikon D700 with Nikon 24-70mm F2.8 AF-S )
Fantastic! well done
The last time I was in Scholes it didn't have big tall buildings like that......only row houses with two up and two down. I don't remember much sun either.
Lovely photograph Dave is that St Patrick's church in the top left hand corner.?
Thanks :)
Yes I think that's St Patrick's.
Good shot, could you explain where this was taken from please.
looks like Benidorm!!!
yes it is St. Pats church Jed
and Ken R I would say its been taken from the Grand Arcade
Ken - it was taken from the top of the car park on Millgate.
What a stunning picture.
Are these awful skyrise flats still occupied?
Nice one Dave, love the colours especially the sky. Looking east you must have been on the car park over Debenhams, or somewhere in that area?
Yes, Jean F, the flats are still occupied. They have just had a refurbishment, which included the new white cladding. This has improved insulation, so they are warmer than before. The interiors have also had a face-lift, and the surrounds have been greatly improved, with secure, gated parking. From the visits I make there, people are happy living there.
Nice shot. I don't remember them looking this good when I left 30 years ago. Amazing how geat light can make a shot(and of course the skill of the photographer.
nice one i live in these flats and i can see my windows need cleaning lol
