One of my sons doesn't go back to school until next week so today, along with a friend and her son, we took the train to Birmingham to visit the Sea Life centre. I was hoping to take some photos in there but the lighting was too low. To get there we walked along the canal which is an area that has undergone a lot of regeneration in recent years. I love the contrast of old and new buildings.
looks so picturesque :) i agree about the contrasts... lovely olde world feel in front and then that tres a la mode glass building in the back... lovely photo!
