Andrew, I took the liberty of submitting a couple of your excellent pics to http://www.worldcityphotos.org/. Yours are much better than the Sheffield pics they have on there at the moment. I asked them to credit you. Hope that's OK.

When you approach this area of town from Hillsborough and the North it looks very dense.

That future skyline shot is very simple block render i did last year. They aren't real proposals, some are in similar places to existing towers, but it was just to show what towers further down from City Lofts could do to the skyline. Also a couple of towers around west bar aswell.

I was looking at that yesteerday actually. It's quite interesting, but i'm not sure how Metier managed to sneak through, cause it goes against all they've set out in that. I suppose it does have some Public art, which will add to the "Public Realm" or sommat like that.
