A Dull Day in Reading

I had this afternoon off work so headed into Reading to look for a Blip.  It was very dull and started to rain when I arrived.  I headed for the weir on the canal but as you can see from this image the water level was very high so not much rushing water.  However, the buildings and sky were interesting.

I took a second image of the Riverside shops and the Oracle.  It was difficult to choose between the two shots so have put the second as an extra.  

This is my contribution to Wide Angle Wednesday, D for dramatic sky and dull day and R for Reading.  Thanks to BobsBlips for the interesting challenge.
