112 100908 - Concrete Jungle

09/20/2008

This building is a bit ludicrous. It's down by Southampton train station, an area I like to call the concrete jungle. Largely because of the fact that there are 3 or 4 massive buildings, which constitute around 2 blocks of pure concrete. They are a bit of an eyesore, but I love them!

This is the HSBC building (though it never looks very busy, I don't know how used it is). I've always meant to take a photo of it, but I've never been able to see the building as I want it to be recorded, so I never have. Today, we both felt a bit rough whilst wandering through town, and this building just presented itself as a great abstract/lines subject so I thought I'd use it to test out my new memory card. I got a whole bunch that I liked, but they're all pretty similar so no need to post!

Happy weekend!
