Moore Street Substation at Rush Hour

Moore Street Substation at Rush Hour
Sheffield at Night

The electrical substation on Moore Street in Sheffield just off the roundabout exit on to Hanover Way. Traffic making a fast exit from the Moore Street Roundabout. This is a 30second exposure at f16, which has created the star bust effect on the street lighting and some bokeh for a glitzy finish. It was a full moon, and excited at the cloud passing across it's bright face. The moon on 3rd Feb rose at the same time as the sun set. This is about 1.5hours after the sunset.  The velocity Tower high rise block of flats sits behind the street lights opposite the substation.
I truly love the substation and it is a challenge to photograph a multitude of contrasting colours with the blue lighting, it is very deep neon blue and can look over saturated against the yellow on the vertical concrete gills. Despite this the black and white conversion is perfect, and a cheeky insert onto the advertising board to give you its colour representation.
