Cranes and Stuff

Cranes have become a regular feature of many city skylines. Driving into Sheffield, there are some that have been there for months, and have become a familiar outline.

City of Cranes is a film I have blogged about before, and which I'll perhaps have to get a copy of at some point. It refers to the life of a crane driver, and the way that they relate to the weather, for example.

A good post on BLDGBLOG: Infrastructural domesticity is a great title for a blog post.

Well worth reading to give you "a different view" on the typical city skyline...

The red cranes on the M1 just before Junction 34 have long been the sign that I was approaching Sheffield. It's only very recently that I realised it's a crane hire place, and not some ongoing building work that was taking a verrrrry long time!
