Selfridges Birmingham

No location shoot in Birmingham would be complete without a visit to the iconic Selfridges store.  Completed in 2003 it was designed by Future Systems Architects and is covered in 15,000 spun aluminium discs on a background of Yves Klein Blue. An architectural landmark and mecca for photographers it now forms the background to my updated webstite.
