    The station. Though I would be partial to visiting the place near the water 🙂

    Ah yes, King’s Cross – the simplicity of the design is attractive. Flatford Mill is near Manningtree in Essex so if you are visiting England it’s a place you could add to your list – though it’s best on a sunny summer day 😉

  Thanks Patti – it was a nice building to work in. And I’m not working that far away from it now – just the other side of St Pauls on Newgate Street.

Nice to see where you used to work & Kingscross station is a wonderful design. I think I remember you posting photos of it some time previously. The Flatford Mill photo is a stunningly beautiful photo Martin. It just looks so calm & peaceful.
I’ve recently started photography as a hobby, I’m a raw beginner with lots to learn. My photography blog is HERE

  Thanks Tony – Flatford Mill would usually look great in colour but it was a grey overcast the day we visited and that made for a good B&W conversion.
  
  I’ll take a look at your photo site 🙂

  Thank you – a grey day made it a good choice for B&W. Well worth a visit if you like National Trust Scones and Tea 😉 Or perhaps doing some birding 🙂

Is the Faraday Building as large as it looks in the photo? It looks immense! All three are quite impressive as buildings, as is the photography!

  Hi Debra – Thanks 🙂 Yes, Faraday building is every bit as elegant and imposing as it looks in the photo! You can read a bit about the building here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Faraday_Building

What a great triptych. I especially love the reflection, but Faraday is cool too. Solid, bold, and I love the way the front right corner turns and is gone.

  Thank you 🙂 I was looking to provide a bit of variety between the images.
