This Battersea Power Station during the blue hour with passing trains and Victoria light depot in the foreground.
this was my second attempt as I was too late and missed the electric blue shy the first time, glad I made the second trip as for me the blue sky brings it to life!
Special thanks to my Flickr friend Alex!

Seen in Battersea Power Station
1929 Works begin on site. Sir Giles Gilbert Scott, one of the most prominent architects of the day, who was responsible for Britain’s red telephone boxes, joins the project. Original proposals were for the chimneys to be square rather than circular.
From the 1930s to 1980s, Battersea Power Station was a working Power Station. At its peak, it was producing a fifth of London’s power, supplying electricity to some of London’s most recognisable landmarks, such as the Houses of Parliament and Buckingham Palace.
Now this legendary London landmark and surrounding area has been brought back to life as one of the most exciting and innovative mixed use neighbourhoods in the world – a place for locals, tourists and residents to enjoy a unique blend of shops, bars, restaurants, entertainment venues, parks and historical spaces. A place to shop, eat, drink, live, work and play; here life doesn’t feel ordinary, it feels extraordinary.
Happy Saturday for Stairs!

Last week I had to make a quick dash to London. I got in a train, got to Victoria, picked up what I needed and was back on a train home within 20 minutes of arriving. These 3 photos where all taken while on the train - hence a few reflections etc from the window.
This one is of the old Battersea power station.
Great that Flickr's back up and running.
Battersea Power Station taken at night while trains travelling back and forth create light trails.
Entered into BuckinghamCamera Club's POTY2019 Round 4 (Open):
Judge's comments : Great place. Sweeping lines. Light trails leading into the blue and towards the power station. Light pollution dealt with ok. Sky could be slightly darker. Lots to see here. Held back.
Judge's score : 19/20
The Victoria train lines leading up to a beautifully lit Battersea power station. The compressed perspective makes them look very close, the river Thames actually divides them.
This is a shot I have had my eye on for a long time now.
I have seen a few offerings and I hope my interpretation brings something fresh to the table.
Looking towards what was Battersea Power Station with Victoria Station to my left.

Another shot of Battersea Power Station taken on my trip to London last month.
This old power station always makes a great subject for a photo, but I think it does look best at night when it's all lit up.
One day I may have a venture over and take a walk around the place and see what I can get. I think once the development is all finished it'll look strange not having a load of cranes around it.

count the bricks - 6 million were used for the construction of the power station in the 1930s/40s and for the redevelopment project an additional 1.5 million new bricks have been made, by the same company that made the original ones.
