I think this is the new(ish) hotel at Gypsy Corner, Acton. Or a clone.

I like this broader view in particular of the building, which I've never seen before. What colour! It must look astonishing on those lightly greyer days in London.

Awesome vibrant colours and great composition. That cloud looks like it's rising out of the building, like toast from a toaster!

the horizontal lines are so precise ... if i am rolling on my window there is no mistake! :) and what about this colored building if the weather is bad...?!?:)))
the colors are as precise as the lines! beautiful!!

Baron von Beerfest says:

Thanks very much! I don't think this building looks as great on a dull day, so I was lucky to have caught this when it was sunny.

M W Pinsent says:

Stunningly powerful! Were you not just a tad tempted to clone out the clouds leaving a pure band of blue?
Posted 39 months ago. ( permalink )

Baron von Beerfest says:

Thanks! I don't actually mind the clouds, so I've never thought about cloning them out. I must admit a pure band of blue would be rather striking, but my shopping skills are not good enough for that sort of thing, I'm afraid.

Barbara Rich says:

Yes, who'd have thought Gypsy Corner could look so chic - have driven past this hundreds of times, your pic inspired me to actually stop and have a walk round the other day.
Posted 29 months ago. ( permalink )

Baron von Beerfest says:

Does stand out a bit, doesn't it? Do you remember what was there before the red? This was the one and only stop I made [except whilst stuck in traffic, of course]. I still have some leftovers from that... one not unlike yours, in fact.

Barbara Rich says:

I think it was a hotel before, but of iron curtain featureless monochrome appearance - the Hoover building's worth stopping for too, but I couldn't see an obvious stopping/parking point anywhere nearby.
Posted 29 months ago. ( permalink )

Baron von Beerfest says:

I've done the Hoover up close during Open House. Never gotten round to shooting it whole from the other side of the road. It's always too busy. Drove past it once at dusk shortly before a thunderstorm. The sky looked so dramatic and the green particularly eerie in that light. I'm still kicking myself for not having my camera with me then. Perhaps I'll go in the middle of the night sometime. There is a small lay-by almost directly opposite, or you could always go down the Perivale exit to the BP garage and stop on the side of the road there. You could even shoot the American diner whilst you are there!
