Sheffield

Sheffield, originally uploaded by osborne villas.

I’ve had a fling with this Car Park for a while, and I can’t help but go back and take more photos of it when we go up to Sheffield and indeed poke about through old ones I’ve taken looking for ones I might have missed like this one.
It does appear in this photo to have all the thought of a nasty forklift accident in a supermarket warehouse, but i love my geometrics, which is something to do with my day persona which is at least in part graphic designer type person. I spend a lot of my time making round things fit into square things and so on, and then being told by clients to put them back, or move them three mil to the left or right over and over again, but it does all tend to hinge on things being more or less lined up with each other along various planes, I realised the other day how obsessive about compositional position I can get, straight horizons, exact-ish fractions of a frame, this doesn’t do that, it is like looking into a pile of really smooth aluminium boxes, which is exactly what you are looking at, although someone has cut them all in half and attached them to the outside of a car park. It’s nickname is “The cheesegrater”, you’d need some pretty large cheddar.
