Smile Manchester around Xmas

A few snaps taken while I decided to take a walk in town to get out of boredom ...


Street lights form an interesting pattern under the passage way of town hall.


Busy shoppers try to get all the shopping done in time


"Manchester Eye" still spins in the freezing cold to keep kids smiling


A still shot of the wheel while showing Arndale Centre at the back


I approached those two musicians and they weren't shy in front of my 1D MK II at all, I even requested theme tune from "The Simpsons", shot taken when they were performing my request

Nice series. But you still haven't managed to get me in any of these shots!

Forgot to say, I really like the town hall shot and the ferris wheel shot.


BTW did you give the sax guys a few quid?

Cheers again, Damian

Unfortunately I didn't, I was kind hoping they would ask me for prints!
