Photos from a Sheffield crane

What would you risk to get the perfect shot?

I stumbled across this wonderful photo of the Peace gardens the other day, taken from an unusual elevation:

Sheffield Peace Gardens by night

Sheffield Peace Gardens/St Paul's square, image by The Revolution and used with permission

It is part of a set by a photographer called The Revolution who appears to have scaled one of the cranes adjacent to the Winter gardens in order to take some shots.

I’ve no idea whether they had access or permission to climb up there, but the results are stunning and the residents and workers of the St Paul’s towers will be in for a treat if these are the views that will be on offer when the development is complete.

The full set of Sheffield photos also includes an impressive one of the illuminated Winter gardens from the same angle.

    great picture! I think the peace gardens/winter garden always looks good at night and the height just adds something extra.
