Thank you! This was a single RAW exposure shot I think although a HDR would admittedly have been pretty cool.

YES!!! I too love taking pictures of this building, its just so interesting and abstract especally when taken from interesting angles. Here is my take on the building [link]
The very nature of the tiles give the it an almose CGI/Computer graphic look.
Love the b&w shot, gives is so much detail

For a building it's incredibly surreal and very striking, everything Future Systems seem to design is fascinating; like their Oxford Street unit [link]
I wish I could work for them one day!

Oh I've not seen that one ^^ I don't travel very well so going to Birmingham started out as a challenge as well as meeting a friend.
But soon found my self lost in a world of shapes, colours designs and a architecture.
Next I was to try macro, If only I had the money for a good macro lens. I can combine my other interest of DJing, with macro images of bits of my gear
Oh and thanks for the watch+

Oh, I thought this was at the 2010 expo xD So they have one in England...nice ouo Then again, this one and the expo one is different, but the concept is similar I think.
At first I thought this was graphics too xD

I've only ever seen the building once and I recognised it in this photo. Very distinctive place.

I have seen hundreds of literally identical photos of this god damn building, and they're way too easy to reproduce. Your other photos deserve much more recognition.

True enough in some ways; I reckon it's just an excellent spot of architecture and thus attracts a lot of attention! Cheers though, I don't think it's one of my strongest shots either...

149 is stunning, that is feature worthy!

I agree - although the last case of this I saw on dA was a DD photo of the UK riots which wasn't exactly a nice thing to see. Anyway, thankyou!

The building is actually Selfridges (which, granted, is part of/attached to the Bull Ring).
Nice moody shot though
