This is Blackburn Meadows power station which sits beside the the M1 motorway where it crosses Don Valley across a viaduct near the Meadowhall shopping mall. I’ve driven over the viaduct on numerous occasions and seen the power station bathed in gorgeous light many times. It’s been on a mental list of things to photograph for a while now. A road and a footpath run beside the place making for good vantage points.
The photos before were the first time I did so, although I had a second visit last weekend – but I have doubts about the second set as I had a problem when removing the film from the camera and suspect it might be riddled with light-leaks now as a result. I guess I’ll see when I get the negatives back from the lab.
