Manchester Skyscraper Upward View Through Canopy Frame

8 October 2019 · Manchester

Glass curtain wall climbs hard against a clear Manchester sky, its geometric facade compressed into something almost abstract from street level. The overhead canopy cuts the frame from above, reducing the sky to a narrow wedge of blue and pulling the tower into sharper relief than a clean skyline shot would allow. Architecture as subject, geometry as composition — both claims true at once, each one tightening the other.
