    Fantastic perspective Ell! And the textures and lines are great.

  • Thank you very much Jordan, Hosier is so fabulously grungy, even from above! :-)
    Haven’t done a ‘birds-eye-view’ before, so was a new image experience! … and slightly disorientating too ;-)

    Superb POV . Thanks Ell.

  • Thanks so much, Derek :-))))
    … I’m nervous of heights – worth the ‘white-knuckle’ effort ;-)

  • Hehehe, not great with heights myself, Josie ;-))
    … it’s a wonder this image is relatively straight, considering the white knuckle-grasp I had on the handrail!
    Thanks so much, VERY happy this made it to an ACE! :-)))
