I love the color of the tones you’ve you chosen, Paula, and your composition. Sad to see these great old buildings wasting away.

I love the angle of your photo. It appears as if the smoke stack has pierced the sky and punctured through the clouds.

On the positive side, decay makes for a fabulous photo opportunity and you know how to take advantage of that 🙂

Such a visual strong photo. I like the deep tones and the split toning.

Thank you, sounds nice, but not quite sure what is meant by ‘amazon’? forgive me..I a foreigner, what can you expect! Googled it but did not get a lot better informed . I know about amazon women of course, but doubt that is what is meant in this instance. Please, I am intrigued!

Ha, ha, thank you for your explanation of the interesting use of the unusual adjective ‘amazon’…It might just start a trend, I shall try it out soon!! I thought it very suited in this case as that chimney is worthy of being called ‘amazon’!

I wonder why people stopped doing the pools? It was so popular years ago, strange, cos everyone still loves football, so why no pools?

Later Littlewoods became a retailer I believe, probably other better shops started up. Littlewoods sold the business, you can find it all on the internet. The building is stunning, more posts about it will trickle by .
