The Annison Building

[Jock]

I had the opportunity today to photograph the Anniston Building in Kingston upon Hull.

Previously, this building had been home to a funeral parlour, stables for Humberside mounted police, Rington's Tea, a photographers studio and now home to a late night pharmacy.

It is also rumoured to be one of Hull's most haunted buildings and has featured on TV's Most Haunted.

It is now open to the public and part of the building is being used as gallery for local photographers and fashion students to exhibit their work.

I had a great opportunity to finally use my Samyang 14mm lens in anger and I'm very happy with the results.

It's me a while to get used to it - with it being a manual focus and my eyesight not being that great, but today, I used a tripod, live view, reading glasses and took my time and I very happy with the results!

All very well taken Jock, and that lens is also looking very sharp.
