On Sunday a few of us went on an organised tour of old canal tunnels and air raid shelters under the Great Northern warehouse and G-Mex (now Manchester Central, back to the original station’s name). It was a short but fascinating glimpse of a piece of industrial history.
Experimenting with longer exposures gave a few good results.
Relying on the flash gave far grainier pictures, but some shots I didn’t have the time to set up a long exposure.
There are more pictures in my Underground Manchester set on Flickr, and Ickle has a few as well.
I believe this is the Irwell end of the canal we were exploring.
After the tour I tried a few long shots of the Central Library.
