The Massey furguson office tower a famous Coventry landmark was blown to the ground today…I managed to view it from my sister apartment which is right next to it..
I took them with my 60d and through glass on a very dull day so i think they turned out well (y)

From this….

I wondered if there were any other TPers there (y) I was shooting from the other side near the junction of Banner Lane and Broad Lane (y) though I have to say I think you had a better vantage point here Steve well done (y)

Good sequence as mentioned. They were a bit confident leaving that 360 so close to the tower.:eek:
 
Great sequence.

How long did you have to wait for the dust to settle before getting the last shot ?

Just showed these to my mum who is visiting and she said we lived close to there (Mount Nod) back in the early 70s

Blimey, I've driven up for many a meeting at Agco, Banner Lane.

Great series of shots....Quite a sad sight.
 
Really super sequence! Alas; I've never lived there
 
Oh if only I had known about this earlier, the first I heard of it was around 2am the night before. I'd have loved to of gone as I used to go to the woodlands school across the road from the tower.

Regardless, great job on capturing a fantastic sequence.
 
Great action sequence of shots ! Luckily you had such a good vantage point without some jobsworth telling you to get back further ! !
