Chinese New Year

Chinese New Year 2012 - Manchester

 

Albert Square.

 

The Year of the Dragon

 

It always makes me laugh when i geotag Manchester Town Hall as it comes up as Manchester City Hall, Chinatown

 

As anyone who knows the magnificent Manchester Town Hall will notice immediately, this is a selective colur shot as I've taken the colour out of the building to make the lanterns stand out a little more. A blend of three shots HDR style in Photoshop Elements.

 

Albert Square is the main location for the annual Manchester Christmas Markets in the city. Saying that other streets are now being used. So if you like to pay four quid + for a pint served in a plastic glass (which you have to pay a pound deposit on) be sure to make a beeline for the Markets.
