  1. That’s cool, Jason, nice colours…especially the grass. I’m trying to figure out where you took this from…

  2. Thanks Margie. I spent some time getting the saturation right, especially the grass (at Kate’s suggestion). I took this one from the the opposite side of the river to the freezing works. There’s a street just before the bridge, the end of the street leads to even better views from above up a grassy hill and keeps going.

  3. Updated: I added a couple photos I shot in 2007, before the fire further destroyed the building.

  4. Ah I recognise that line of trees. I think I’ve stood right where that picnic table is actually.
