Amenities
The shopping centre should have pretty much everything you need.
Basically a one way, at a time, only shot. The favoured shot is north facing and will be better lit from mid day onwards. In the morning the light will be on the east of the line and large shadows will come off the road ramp onto the line. Also the clearance between the line and the ramp is quite tight. The view over the bridge wall, which is around 5 foot high, is unrestricted. There is a large advertising billboard that will be left of frame and some may prefer longer lens to get over some debris in the car park below. The south facing view will probably only be reasonably well lit in the summer months during the late evening, but the height of the shopping centre will make this pretty much unattainable.
