Castle Park

Larger sizes - Comment at flickr.com

Photoblog: 10 Mar 2007

In WWII large areas the industrial centre of Bristol were damaged by bombing. While most were rebuilt with bland utilitarian blocks, Castle Park, beside the harbour and Broadmead shopping centre remained undeveloped. The ruins were cleared, with the exception of two churches, roofless and propped up with concrete beams, and the rest of the plot landscaped. A small, somewhat pointless and artsy water feature has been built beside St Peter's Church. Over christmas 2006 a ferris wheel was erected to entertain shoppers.

I wasn't especially excited about how this shot turned out, but it got a good response...

Taken on December 9th according to the blurb. I spent a while standing in this exact spot pointing my camera at this reflection on that day too. I moved a few leaves out of the way for you :-)
