United Kingdom Huron Basin

The Huron Basin in one of the many that give shape to the whole Media City / Salford Quays area. A location that a couple of centuries ago was the main docking area of the Industrial Revolution. The bridge in the central part of the frame gives it an industrial look that links it to its past.

Photography Tips

This is a straight-head-on kind of spot that will ask for a focal length from 70mm onwards, to give some size to that bridge. Best time to shoot it is during blue hour since the bridge illumination will create some separation with its background.
