I will definitely be back to this location when the conditions are better for shooting. Along with the clouds, I had all kinds of junk and spots on the sensor of my camera I only discovered after an hour of shooting. Also need less wind to leverage the amazing reflections.
Temasek Polytechnic - the institution I work for over 23 years. Next year we are celebrating 25th anniversary so I am asked to do a piece to roll out a series of activities. I gathered a very small group of sketchers from staff, alumni and students' team and I did a sketch on top of the building.
The architect was James Stirling and Wilford. Although Jame Stirling died before the job was completed, the design won an international architectural award in his company's name. The entire campus did bear his signature to have a very geometrical site layout with the main walkway bridge framing the view of the beautiful Bedok Reservouir.

Gmach Główny Politechniki Warszawskiej. Autorzy Stefan Szyller i Bronisław Brochwicz-Rogoyski stworzyli zespół politechniczny według ówczesnych standardów europejskich. Budowa Gmachu Głównego rozpoczęła się w lipcu 1899 roku, i trwała tylko 2 lata. Gmach Główny Warszawskiego Instytutu Politechnicznego jest typowym przykładem architektury odwołującej się do stylistyki włoskiego renesansu i baroku. Reprezentacyjny charakter gmachu podkreślała monumentalna, dwukondygnacyjna fasada o zaokrąglonych narożnikach. Gmach został zaprojektowany według klasycznych reguł przyjmowanych przez ówczesne uczelnie w Europie. /
Main Building of Warsaw University of Technology. Authors Stefan Szyller and Bronislaw Brochwicz-Rogoyski have designed polytechnic by contemporary European standards. Construction of the Main Building began in July 1899, and lasted only two years. Main Building of Warsaw Polytechnic Institute is a typical example of architecture that refers to the style of the Italian Renaissance and Baroque. The representative character of the building, emphasized the monumental two-storey facade with rounded corners. The building was designed according to classical rules adopted by the then universities in Europe.
Outside view of the IST building... Best part about shooting in the rain is that everyone else stays inside haha
...yes, yes I know that was it’s previous name, it’s now a business college or some such thing.
Anyways, this is where I was tutored in the dual lithographic arts of printing and platemaking. City and Guilds, 4 Distinctions and a Credit ... don’t ask me how that happened but it did and I’ve a certificate to prove it. Thank you Doc Holliday and the endlessly suffering Mr Burnside, both of whom put up with a class full of rebellious yobs, for that was what we were dear reader... uncouth yobs.
Sited behind the Theatre Royal and Concert Hall it’s bordering on Art Deco in style.

HMS Belfast moored on the River Thames with Tower Bridge behind.
I was walking around the Old Smoke shortly before becoming an undergraduate at Kingston Polytechnic, and I took this view of HMS Belfast and Tower Bridge. Although not visible in this shot, I was on my way to see Short S.25 Sandringham (Sunderland MR5) flying boat G-BJHS which was moored next to Tower Bridge :)
There are at least 17 boats / ships in this view, and I can't help noticing that the warehouses on the right (south) bank still have lifting cranes attached to them - a last vestige of the Thames when it was a proper 'working' river.
'HMS Belfast is a Town-class light cruiser that was built for the Royal Navy. She is now permanently moored as a museum ship on the River Thames in London and is operated by the Imperial War Museum.
Construction of Belfast, the first ship in the Royal Navy to be named after the capital city of Northern Ireland and one of ten Town-class cruisers, began in December 1936. She was launched on St Patrick's Day 1938. Commissioned in early August 1939 shortly before the outbreak of the Second World War, Belfast was initially part of the British naval blockade against Germany. In November 1939, Belfast struck a German mine and, in spite of fears that she would be scrapped, spent more than two years undergoing extensive repairs. Belfast returned to action in November 1942 with improved firepower, radar equipment, and armour. Belfast saw action escorting Arctic convoys to the Soviet Union during 1943 and in December 1943 played an important role in the Battle of North Cape, assisting in the destruction of the German warship Scharnhorst. In June 1944, Belfast took part in Operation Overlord supporting the Normandy landings. In June 1945, she was redeployed to the Far East to join the British Pacific Fleet, arriving shortly before the end of the Second World War. Belfast saw further combat action in 1950–52 during the Korean War and underwent an extensive modernisation between 1956 and 1959. A number of further overseas commissions followed before she entered reserve in 1963.
In 1967, efforts were initiated to avert Belfast's expected scrapping and to preserve her as a museum ship. A joint committee of the Imperial War Museum, the National Maritime Museum, and the Ministry of Defence was established and then reported in June 1968 that preservation was practical. In 1971, however, the government decided against preservation, prompting the formation of the private HMS Belfast Trust to campaign for her preservation. The efforts of the Trust were successful, and the government transferred the ship to the Trust in July 1971. Brought to London, she was moored on the River Thames near Tower Bridge in the Pool of London. Opened to the public in October 1971, Belfast became a branch of the Imperial War Museum in 1978.'

First time here - overwhelming to figure out how and where to shoot from. Beautiful lines and shadows.
This amazing building is the design child of famed architect, Dr. Santiago Calatrava. The automatic fins on top of the structure open and close to allow efficient use of available light. This IST (Innovation, Science and Technology) building is home to an ultra fast super computer, a 3D printing lab and a host of additional teaching and learning devices. Oh, and there are a number of very intelligent geeks hanging around, as well, with more on the way.
