Sent to Coventry

On Tuesday I took a stroll around Coventry City Centre with the intention of getting some shots of the old Cathedral, which was bombed by the Nazis in World War II. The graphic shapes and wonderful textures of the ruins lent themselves perfectly to some mono treatment, and here's some of my favourites.

Later on, Mum and I went into town to do some low-light photography. However, before Mum could even take one shot she fell over and broke her foot, so our excursion was cut short. I did get these shots while we waiting for someone to come a pick us up. We'll have to go back again when she's out of plaster!

Last night I braved the dreadful weather to go and photograph the annual Bedworth Civic fireworks display organised by the Bedworth Lions Club. Despite the rain, it was a great display - this year done to music for the very first time. Well done to the organisers, and here's a few of my shots.

I've another busy few days ahead of me this week with three gigs over the next three nights, followed by a weekend at Music Live at the NEC next weekend. Busy times, which of course means lots more blog posts for you all to read. For now, I'll leave you with three more from the fireworks - probably three of my favourites from the night.
