The Thames Barrier is a remarkable piece of industrial engineering and stretches over 520 metres across the river Thames in London. The barrier took 8 years to construct at a cost of £535 million. With parts of London susceptible to flooding, the barrier when raised stands as high as a 5 storey building and provides vital protection to approx 48 square miles of the city.
I elected to capture a long exposure at high tide and processed in a black and white fine art style to enable the barrier to be the main focus of attention for the viewer
I live in Ayrshire on the west coast of Scotland and my creative journey has evolved over the years. My main interests include Architecture, Landscape and Seascape. Over the past few years I have become more immersed in the Black and White Fine Art genre and predominately focus my time and attention into learning and developing more of my photography in this field.
