Good Morning, St Ives

Good Morning, St Ives
More pictures coming your way after a long absence from this photoblog for most of 2014 🙂 I passed through St Ives on my previous trip to Cornwall in 2011 but did not get to visit the beautiful seaside town. On my trip this time round, we stayed over and found a bit of time to explore the narrow alleyways within town itself. There were a lot of one-way lanes which made navigation tricky (there are also vehicular restrictions especially in summer). In the end, we were glad we made the effort to drive in for we were rewarded with a beautiful view of the town in the early morning sunshine.

The iconic exterior of the Selfridges store at the Bull Ring provided the perfect backdrop to this candid moment I captured on my recent visit to Birmingham. I was thankful for the sunshine that I encountered — not only did it provide lighting for the shot, but it kept me warm in the cold weather then!

Update 27 January 2013 – Thank you for making this picture Noteworthy on photofriday‘s challenge on the theme “Pattern“! 🙂
