Battersea forever :)


We got into Battersea Power Station today as they had opened it to the public after 25 years of being closed and inaccessible. Unbelievable experience even if we couldn't get into all corners.

It definitely is, Dave! Did you know that Battersea has been open from last Monday till today, from noon to 6 pm each day, to the public? We went there today and spent hours shooting! What a thrill!!! People from everywhere streaming there to see old lovely Battersea!

an amazing monument to Victorian engineering ... I remember a doco on it several years back ... beautiful machinery, awesome.

Incidentally, I was around Oxford Street/ Regents Park again last week but was in a dash ... one time when things are less frantic (for both of us by the sound of it) we must 'do lunch' !

Oh nein, es ist eine unglaubliche Industriestruktur, das groesste Ziegelbauwerk Europas! Das von nahe in Person zu sehen war heute eine unglaubliche Erfahrung! Ich meine, als junges Maedchen kaufte ich das Pink Floyd Album und heute stand ich mitten drin!!! Herzbeben kostenlos :)

Stimmt, ist wahrscheinlich auch der tiefere Grund warum die holde Weiblichkeit so viel zu pink greift ... :D

Bigoode, it was closed for 25 years and now they had opened it to the public for just one week! We spent half of today in there, being totally blown away and shooting like crazy!

wow, i want to go in! how imposingly scary... und fantastisch alpträumerisch!

Es ist eine fabelhafte Struktur, Europas groesster Ziegelbau! Leider maechtig am Zerfallen und nun wohl fuer einen "total overhold", sprich futuristisches Projekt vorgesehen. Ich bin mir nicht sicher, ob ich es mag. Werde heute abend mal ein Foto vom Modell posten.

This is such an incredibly awesome structure! With the exception of an album cover, I know very little about the place. Thanks for sharing your photos & stirring my interest.

Oh it is totally awesome! I was amazed at how many people were using this one week of open doors to go and see it.

Completamente de acuerdo, es una arquitectura completamente fascinante y una pena de que se este decayendo de esa manera!

it IS such an amazing building and I just hope it won't get too alienated in those new projects they are wielding.

Thanks for your visit and comment :)

a total restructuration with a high-flying futuristic design, integrating the old structure into a giant complex of buildings.
