Millenium Bridge

Posted by Ian Bramham (Manchester, United Kingdom) on 15 September 2007 in Architecture and Portfolio.

This is the Millenium Bridge in Salford Quays, Manchester. It is 5 minutes from our office and is the main pedestrian link over the Manchester Ship Canal between the Lowry Centre and the Imperial War Museum.

This shot was taken using the b&w in-camera setting and is not a conversion from an original colour photo using photoshop. I'm experimenting with this setting at the moment as I found it made a difference when composing shots. Also, although it is obviously more limiting in terms of tonal range compared to doing a photoshop conversion, I thought it resulted in higher overall IQ.

For purchasing high quality archival prints of any of these photos you can send me an email by clicking here or by going to MY NEW WEBSITE where prices are listed in the gallery sections under each individual photo.

Links to the websites of other photographers whose work I love and who have all helped me enormously over a long period of time. I find the work of all 3 to be inspirational.
