Wow - you'd need a nice long bit of wall to do this justice! I love all the patterns created by the windows and that lone seagull up the top! Is this residential? Does it sway when the wind blows!

Many thanks, Suz. I think the bottom few storeys are commercial and the rest is residential. The views from the uppermost floors must be spectacular. I imagine it would sway in the fierce winds that blow in from the Irish Sea.

Interesting shot and building! Love the moody clouds and the building with all it's patterns is amazing!!!

Thank you, Jess. I think the clouds form the perfect backdrop for this striking building.

Congratulations!!! :)

Thanks, Jess. It's been so long since that contest - I'd forgotten all about it.
