Children of the (Industrial) Revolution

I was born in Manchester, UK, the birthplace of the industrial revolution. Doubtless this informed my aesthetic, providing me with a curious delight in rugged industrial  backdrops.
And while these images aren't of the bleak, rugged b/w variety that typically come to mind, I still find something appealing and pretty about the forms themselves, and the pastel colors.
This last one reminds me of the thrill rides at a theme park. All of them were taken recently while on location, shooting something else entirely.
