Nice photo.

Did you see the article in the Birmingham Post yesterday about the refurbishment of Centre City Tower? Think it will just be an internal refurb. There was a small picture at the bottom of the piece of Centre City, only small, but it was an amazing shot. Looked liked something out of a Batman film! Can someone reproduce the picture & post it on this thread?

I think I would go for pictures of Cannon Street, Edmund street, Eden Place or Waterloo Street (maybe sans the let boards), lots of beautiful understated Edwardian and Victorian buildings, I showed some pictures to a friend visiting Birmingham recently, and he mistakenly thought it was Paris. I'd like to wheel them out for the comments you routinely hear like, "Birminghams a concrete Jungle", "all the buildings are modern and ugly" etc

Cannon Street is one of my favourites too.
