As seen out & about & converted to monochrome. This hasn't moved on much since I took a photo in 2017 - see first comment for that photo below.
Taken in film simulation mode. This is the water tank used at the ocean reef marina development. The water is used to keep the dust down during siteworks at the development. Such a beautiful scene.
This view was so apocalyptic it needed a photo. This was taken through some fencing. The scene is part of the redevelopment of the Broadmarsh shopping centre in central Nottingham, and hopefully gives some sense of the scale of the work going on in the centre of the city.

The Silvertown area, south east of the Royal Victoria Dock, shows slow progress compared with other parts of Dockland. This is the old 'D' grain silo with some of the pipes still evident where they used to suck grain into the silo from moored ships. This and the adjacent Spillers Warehouse are grade II listed so will have to be preserved and incorporated into the scheme. Probably converted into luxury apartments.

The Chrisp Street Market and surrounding area is being redeveloped. I don't know how much of the 1951 modernist buildings (which were part of the Festival of Britain and were designed by Frederick Gibberd) will remain,

Although the filling-in of the Rijnhaven is nearing completion, the work is not yet done. The extended Holliday-pause was used to temporally turn the harbour into a recreational zone ;-) In the BG are Latenstein Meelfabriek, Fenix Lofts (the redeveloped Fenix 1) and Fenix 2 (in the process of redellopment into the Emigration museum (Land verhuizers museum).
The Rijnhaven, a former harbour, will be partly (30%) filled in to enable the realization of, amongst others, an office/apartment building strip with up to 200m high towers called the 'Skyline Posthumalaan' with an adjacent park and city beach. And there will be the floating Rijnhavenpark, too.
This is number 16 of Rijnhaven - the redevelopment album, and 366 of Rotterdam harbour and industry.
Brindley Place is a mixed use modern redevelopment of the area around the Birmingham Canal Navigations main line canal.
Named after the great 18th century engineer James Brindley, the area occupied by Brindley place was, at the height of Birmingham's industrial past, the site of many factories. By the 1970s as Britain's manufacturing went into decline, the factories closed down and the buildings lay derelict for many years.
Covering an area of 17 acres, the site was developed by the Argent Group from 1993 onwards.
Nanjing Road (en chino, 南京路; pinyin, Nánjīng Lù) es la principal calle de tiendas de Shanghái, China, y una de las calles de tiendas más transitadas del mundo.1 En la actualidad, Nanjing Road se compone de dos secciones: Nanjing Road East y Nanjing Road West. En algunos contextos, "Nanjing Road" se refiere solo a lo que fue Nanjing Road hasta el 1945, en la actualidad Nanjing Road East, ampliamente peatonal. Antes de 1949, el nombre en inglés de la calle era "Nanking Road", usando la romanización estándar de aquella época.
Nanjing Road es el distrito de compras más largo del mundo, con una longitud de unos 6 km, y atrae más de 1 millón de visitantes diariamente.
East Nanjing Road es una zona dedicada a los comercios. En su extremo este está la sección central del Bund, donde se sitúa el Peace Hotel. Inmediatamente al oeste del Bund estaba tradicionalmente la zona de restaurantes y cafeterías, aunque en años recientes se han convertido en menos importantes porque la demografía de los visitantes de Nanjing Road ha cambiado de residentes locales ricos a visitantes de todo el país. Cerca está el Mercado Central, un mercado al aire libre de un siglo de antigüedad especializado actualmente en componentes electrónicos y medios digitales. Más hacia el oeste está el centro comercial peatonal de Nanjing Road. Aquí se sitúan la mayoría de los grandes almacenes más antiguos y grandes de Shanghái, así como muchos comercios domésticos y algunos restaurantes tradicionales con larga historia.

Nanjing Road (Chinese: 南京路; pinyin: Nánjīng Lù; Shanghainese: Noecin Lu) is a road in Shanghai, the eastern part of which is the main shopping district of Shanghai. It is one of the world's busiest shopping streets, along with Fifth Avenue, Oxford Street, Orchard Road, Takeshita Street and the Champs-Élysées. The street is named after Nanjing, capital of Jiangsu province and the former capital of the Republic of China. Today's Nanjing Road comprises two sections, Nanjing Road East and Nanjing Road West.
Nanjing Road is located in the city center, running in a west–east direction. Its eastern section is in Huangpu District and extends from The Bund west to People's Square. The western section begins at People's Square and continues westward towards Jing'an District.
East Nanjing Road is a dedicated commercial zone. At its eastern end is the central section of the Bund, featuring the Peace Hotel. Immediately west of the Bund precinct was traditionally the hub of European-style restaurants and cafes, although in recent years these have become less of a feature as the demographics of visitors to Nanjing Road have shifted from affluent local residents to visitors from around the country. Close by is the Central Market, a century-old outdoor market today specialising in electronic components and digital media. Further west is the Nanjing Road pedestrian mall. Located here are most of Shanghai's oldest and largest department stores, as well as a variety of domestic retail outlets, and some traditional eateries with a long history. From the perspective of the historical development of Nanjing East Road, the start and redevelopment of this road were driven by the pursuit of commerce and image. The commercialization of Nanjing East Road has both a promotion and a restrictive effect.

Joshua Hoyles’ Cotton Mill @ Summerseat, Greater Manchester, on Sunday 12th March 2017. The mill has stood on the banks of the River Irwell for over two hundred years and was converted into apartments in the 1980s. The red and white barriers mark the foundations of the old Waterside Inn, which collapsed into the flood waters of Storm Eva during December 2015.
In 1863 the first sugar factory was opened in Halfweg. After a few years, this sugar factory closed its doors, after which the N.V. Sugar Factory Holland settled there not much later. The factory was located on the site that includes the former Gemeenlandshuis Swanenburg. In 1919, the Sugar Factory Holland was transferred to the Central Sugar Company. This is how the name “CSM” came about. From the mid-1970s, CSM grew into a large concern. The sugar activities became less important. In 1992 the factory in Halfweg was closed. Due to the closure, approximately 110,000 m² of land surface was freed up for redevelopment.
In 2000 the site was sold to a project developer. The two silos of the sugar factory, where the sugar and molasses used to be stored, have been converted into modern offices and show areas. The two fifty-metre-high sugar silos, together with the lime kiln, form the landmarks of SugarCity. The silos are clad on the outside with metal panels with coloured lamps on them, which give a light show on the two towers in the evenings.
Schiphol
SugarCity is situated almost directly in line with on the runways of Amsterdam Airport Schiphol. This causes one of the external safety contours (10-6) to lie over one of the towers. The potential risk is such that it has been discussed for a long time whether so many people are allowed to be there and/or work there. A compromise was found. The towers were not allowed to be developed to the maximum with offices and workstations. Hence the show areas. This reduces the number of people present at any time, and as such the reduces the number of potential deaths if an aircraft would hit the tower(s).
Technical stuff
This ND long exposure is a 400ISO, f7.1, 103secs at 16 mils shot with my Fujifilm X-T3. Post-production was done with Lightroom. Finally, I added the copyright signs (in Photoshop). The latter is, alas, there to stay due to the frequent copying of my photos. So, don't bother commenting on that.

Mariners Canal a modern waterway which connects Erie Basin and Ontario Basin as part of the Salford Quays (previously Salford Docks one of two sections of the Manchester Docks), in Salford, Greater Manchester.
Built by the Manchester Ship Canal Company, Salford Docks was the larger of two sections that made up Manchester Docks; the other being Pomona Docks to the east. They were opened in 1894 by Queen Victoria and spanned 120 acres (49 ha) of water and 1,000 acres (400 ha) of land. At their height the Manchester Docks were the third busiest port in Britain, but after containerisation and the limit placed on vessel size on the Manchester Ship Canal, the docks declined during the 1970s. They closed in 1982, resulting in the loss of 3000 jobs.
In 1983 Salford City Council acquired parts of the docks covering 220 acres (90 ha) from the Manchester Ship Canal Company with the aid of a derelict land grant. The area was rebranded as Salford Quays and redevelopment by Urban Waterside began in 1985 under the Salford Quays Development Plan. Faced with major pollution issues from quality of the water in the ship canal, dams were built to isolate the docks, after which water quality was improved by aerating it using a compressed air mixing system. Within two years the quality was sufficient to introduce 12,000 coarse fish, which have thrived in the environment. Water quality is monitored fortnightly by scientists from APEM, the Manchester University Aquatic Pollution and Environmental Monitoring Unit, and the improved habitat has been recognised by the Angling Foundation and the Institute of Fisheries Management.
Between 1986 and 1990 the infrastructure of the docks was modified to create an internal waterway network. Roads and bridges were built and a promenade along the waterfront constructed and landscaped. Moorings and watersports facilities were provided and a railway swing bridge moved to cross Dock 9. A hotel, cinema, housing, offices were built on Piers 5 and 6 followed by more developments on Pier 7. Public funding and private investment totalled around £280 million by the early 1990s
After years of planning, tendering, health and safety assessments, costing and public consultation... a safety rail was added to the end of the Loch Ard jetty.... lol
I loved the light on the far trees.. I have not taken the jetty from this angle before... I really need to find another Loch!!
...If you are interested in visiting loch Ard or seeing what it has to offer, i have put together a blog that covers this beautiful little loch... check it out here..
Can somebody give me £5 million please. That's my camera bag underneath the bridge . Why did I leave that there ?

Pompano Beach is a city in Broward County, Florida, United States. It is located along the coast of the Atlantic Ocean, just north of Fort Lauderdale and 36 miles north of Miami. The nearby Hillsboro Inlet forms part of the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway. It is a principal city of the Miami metropolitan area, which was home to 6.14 million people in 2020. As of the 2020 census, the population was 112,046, making it the sixth-largest city in Broward County, the ninth-largest city in the South Florida metropolitan area, and the 20th-largest city in Florida.
Pompano Beach Airpark, located within the city, is the home of the Goodyear Blimp
Pompano Beach is currently in the middle of a redevelopment process to revitalize its beachfront and historic downtown. The city has also been listed as one of the top real estate markets, being featured in CNN, Money and the Wall Street Journal as one of the country's top vacation home markets. Pompano Beach Airpark, located within the city, is the home of the Goodyear Blimp Spirit of Innovation.
Its name is derived from the Florida pompano (Trachinotus carolinus), a fish found off the Atlantic coast.
There had been scattered settlers in the area from at least the mid-1880s, but the first documented permanent residents of the Pompano area were George Butler and Frank Sheen and their families, who arrived in 1896 as railway employees. The first train arrived in the small Pompano settlement on February 22, 1896. It is said that Sheen gave the community its name after jotting down on his survey of the area the name of the fish he had for dinner. The coming of the railroad led to development farther west from the coast. In 1906 Pompano became the southernmost settlement in newly created Palm Beach County. That year, the Hillsboro Lighthouse was completed on the beach.
On July 3, 1908, a new municipality was incorporated in what was then Dade County: the Town of Pompano. John R. Mizell was elected the first mayor. In 1915, Broward County was established, with a northern boundary at the Hillsboro Canal. Thus, within eight years, Pompano had been in three counties. Pompano Beach experienced significant growth during the Florida land boom of the 1920s. In 1940, the U.S. Supreme Court disallowed forced confessions in Chambers v. Florida, a dispute stemming from a murder in Pompano Beach.
Following the population boom due to World War II, in 1947 the City of Pompano merged with the newly formed municipality on the beach and became the City of Pompano Beach. In 1950, the population of the city reached 5,682. Like most of southeast Florida, Pompano Beach experienced great growth in the late 20th century as many people moved there from northern parts of the United States. A substantial seasonal population also spends its winters in the area. The city of Pompano Beach celebrated its centennial in 2008.

Birmingham, like most British cities I guess, is undergoing a transformation. Here, on the edge of Centenary Square, you can see a new and quite ordinary apartment block with a demolition site in front of it and the Cube behind. The Cube is an amazing looking building designed by MAKE and I would have loved a closer look, next time!

Foggy morning
The redevelopment will consist of five residential towers ranging from 35-57 stories.
The first phase will include retail at ground level, offices on the next two storeys. In total five residential towers ranging in height from 35 to 57 storeys will be constructed. The project is expected to take 10 years to complete . Once complete it will have 1,500 to 1,800 residential units and feature a retail strip that promises to have a Granville Island type feel
