Thanks ABYSS...have ordered a new Digi Camera off ebay, cos me old 2 megapixel one is getting on a bit now. Love taking pics of cars against industrial backgrounds and Salfords docklands has some great places, gonna go back up there and grab a few more when new cam arrives

nice pictures m8 -the buildings / skyline (3rd from bottom) look a bit modern -what are they, flats or offices?

[Scooby]

3rd from bottom are offices in Salford Quays, right next to old part of Manchester ship Canal ( very contrasting setting )...and 2nd from bottom are £250,000!! apartments ( would love to know how much the penthouses cost!! ) on new developments at the marina complex in the Quays. Theres some awesome buildings..

Not forgetting the Imperial War Museum! - fantastic building. It would be a great backdrop for a photoshoot!!

If anyone doesn't know what it is, here are a few of my 'snaps'.....









So what about a NW photoshoot here then!!? Access to the car park may be a bit tricky - security are s**t hot!!

Great snaps. A bit risky parking it on a level crossing

It looked stunning against the blue sky yesterday, but ya right about security...couldnt even get onto the car park to take just one pic as backdrop.
There are so many alleyways and unused roads on the old docklands for pics....most of them look like they are straight out of the Sweeney!! and as Drinky mentioned, cracking place for photoshoot

What Camera have you gone for Scooby??

Sony Cybershot P200 7.2M Pixel cos a mates got one and the pics it takes blow me away

Great snaps. A bit risky parking it on a level crossing

Parking there was easy...lying between the tracks getting the low shots was another thing tho lol
