Balloon Street, Manchester

Tuesday 21st January 2014, 9.15am (day 880)

Balloon Street, 21/1/14

Yet another beautiful morning. What a difference a year makes — on 21st January 2013, Hebden Bridge was under several inches of snow. This is Manchester, and customers of the Co-Operative Bank who have long seen ‘1 Balloon Street’ as the corporate address on their correspondence may be vaguely interested to see that this is, indeed, Balloon Street itself. Part of Co-op HQ on the left and (I think) right, the Shudehill bus station straight ahead, and the morning sun doing its best to reach around the corner (the patch to lower right being a reflection). No cars run along this street now but yes, I did check that no trams were coming before I got the shot.
