I have shot this building before on my 365, with my mobile phone. Today I had my little panasonic TZ7 in my pocket so grabbed a shot on my lunchtime walk.
It had some serious converging verticals, so I attempted to straighten them in GIMP (using the drainpipe on the left hand side as a vertical gauge).
I've tried to show the magnificent colours of the bricks and gate.
The little street sign on the left hand corner is tomorrows shot
Beautiful archway! The horizontals and verticals are difficult to get right particularly with a wide angle lens or setting I have found. And if the building is on a slope, its even more tricky!
My word & here is its home....very fitting Phil, beautiful red brick with fine windows & mouldings. Murphy....is that a beer? Is it still in business? Must have been difficult to get this straight!
@happypat thanks Pat, it is a former brewery building, The Prince of Wales Brewery. The current occupants - Murphy and son supply various parts and components to the brewing and pub industry
@maggiemae the building is on a bit of a slope too :)
@busylady great isn;t it judith :)
@kerristephens cheers kerris
@steveh well they could tell a good tale, especially as the 'maltings' across the road are now student halls or residence / accommodation
