On the way back from the station. From raw, temperature reduced in photoshop.

In 1919 the daily output of George's Brewery's reached 100,000 bottles. In 1961 George's was bought by Courage. Courage left in 1999, and the buildings have been empty since then. No doubt they'll be turned into luxuary flats as soon as the developers have finished with the rest of Bristol. I read somewhere that there were plans to put a footbridge over the harbour here, but there were problems, ecause after the partial demolition of the brewery there would be a great height difference, so they would need a disabled lift at one end. Of course, if such a bridge ever were built, it would have the mandatory set of railings at each end to make cyclists slow down, thus blocking wheelchairs anyway.

This is good Joe, nice starry sky! Only minor criticism is the white stick & leaves in the foreground are a bit distracting

Very nice - hadn't noticed the stick until Neil mentioned it, but now it dominates. Git.
