City Series II || Blue Hatches

A complex interplay of lines, colour and form.

I love the blue of the reflections with scattered cream lights showing from the inside of the building.

Just out of interest this shot was taken immediately before Korner Kalidescope.  Just goes to show that a few steps one way can change the view and photograph radically.

I hope you enjoy Blue Hatches.
