Digbeth

From time to time, something happens that makes me extremely glad I live in Birmingham, and not somewhere like London, or nearer London at least. Last weekend I went to town with my BFF (my mom) to take photos in the style of Margaret Bourke White's building photos to fill a page in my sketchbook I've had empty for months, and I thought that the falling down buildings in Digbeth would be good for these. Plus, I've been meaning to photograph Digbeth for ages and ages. Welllll, we came across the Custard Factory (that I've actually never been to before, despite living here for my whole life) which was brilliant to photograph. I think it was, anyway. Here are some of the photos:
