The sky is beautiful captured through the skylight, lovely colours. The skew composition is a bit distracting though.

The warm colours in The Dancer are very attractive.
Who knew Chorley could be so attractive!
Welcome back. Both shots are very eye catching. The second is is the best one, but I like the abstract colours of the first, even if the big mass of colour on the left throws the picture off balance a bit.
An interesting read as always. The tunnel shot is my pick from this set, along with the dancer.
What a fascinating place, pretty sad that nobody has a use for it. It would make a great concert venue. Certainly is was designed to impress and project the power of the state.
You made a really good documentation.
A really nice idea for a photograph.
But may I say that it needed some horizontal keystone correction in post, to get the top and bottom sides parallel. I have this problem quite often and I correct in post.
Yes, Chris' image is fairly quick and easy to fix in post as shown in the link I posted earlier.

Chorley Town Centre
As I scrambled around to find any composition that I could use capitalise on these nice colours, I spotted that, carefully positioned, I could see several of the major landmarks in Chorley town centre through a gap in the tree tops. This shot shows the tower of the town hall beside the brutalist concrete structure of the police station, a design hated by many locals, but I've always liked it ever since I was a kid as back then it looked futuristic. I still think it looks retro-futuristic now and certainly way better than the hulking beige box of the entertainment and shopping complex the council threw up just before the pandemic, finally destroying the historic location of this market town's "flat iron" market. It's a rough looking thing indeed, with all of the design flair of a 1990's PC. I'm still bitter that they knocked down the Odeon. Anyway...

Yes, but only from a safe distance. Two miles is usually good enough, although further is generally better ;-)
