Better Than One from duncmc via flickr.

A recently installed sculpture outside the new Logistics Institute at the University of Hull. The sculpture, entitled Moving Matter, was created by Joe Hillier and commisioned by the University to reflect the ambitions, vision and mission of the Institute. The two heads represent the interaction of minds and the human aspect of logistics.

Two Stationary Ambulances from duncmc via flickr.

The new(ish) ambulance station in Brough presents the casual photographer with an unexpected opportunity to experiment with the compositional value of painted road markings.

Across The River And Into The Trees from duncmc via flickr.

Although not necessarily in that order…

It’s been a while since I posted, which is very remiss of me. Just another Humber Bridge shot I’m afraid.

Note to self: Must blog more often!

Out Of Service from duncmc via flickr.

The two lighthouses at Spurn – the “Low Light” to the left which is the older building, and the “High Light” to the right, up on the point itself. Both lighthouses are no longer in service, replaced by electronic navigation beacons.

The Point Of No Return from duncmc via flickr.

Tuesday last week brought more river fog, and this time I thought I would try up on the bridge as it looked a little dense at ground level. This is shot from the western walkway at the north tower, looking southwards. The top of the south tower is just visible above the fog.

Monday was one of those days. Sweet…

When sun rise and high tide coincide the Humber reveals its true beauty.

Grist To The Mill from duncmc via flickr.

Perhaps my favourite of the shots I have taken of this derelict mill on the River Hull. The old British Extracting Co building has stood empty for some time and is an inviting prospect for urban explorers. I have often wondered what’s inside, and found an account from Lighting The Darkness cached in Google. The link to the original page was broken, and sadly the site seems to be defunct. I published the account under another photo I took which can be seen here on my Flickr photostream.

A Bit More Maizecor from duncmc via flickr.

There’s that Maizecor building again. Getting rid of the telegraph wires was tricky.

Tribute from duncmc via flickr.

Whilst out and about the other day this stopped me in my tracks. This part of town oozes atmosphere as it is, but this floral tribute placed beside the River Hull was particulalry poignant. The derelict mill looming on the far bank echoed the sentiments of the wreaths and flowers, like some fading monument to a bygone age of industry and commerce. It made me stop and ponder what might have once been…

From Russia With Love from duncmc via flickr.

One of my favourites in this series from Ullswater. I don’t know why but this one reminds me of Russia, not that I have ever been there.
