#FlickrFriday #PushTheButton I accidentally saw my reflection in the button halfway through shooting these photos but I'm really glad I noticed it and played with it because I think it adds a lot to the photo.
I needed the oven manual to adjust time for DST. I had missed the "settings"position of the main the button.
J'ai eu besoin du manuel pour mettre le four à l'heure d'été :je n'avais pas vu la position "réglage" du bouton principal.
The scaffolding has mostly come down since I last saw the Custard Factory's Devonshire House. It was still up when I took it last in October 2009. It is nice to see it like this again, although there is still barriers at the bottom. I hope that they have removed the graffiti that was on the bottom of the building last year (when sections were exposed to vandals).
My bus route switched to Bradford Street, so I can't see it from the bus anymore.
Was part of the Devonshire Works of Alfred Bird & Sons.
It was built in 1902.

A pair of buses. I was waiting for the traffic to clear to get a clean shot of Devonshire House (see the next few shots). Buses on routes 97 and 37. 97 from Travel West Midlands - 1797. Think that it is a Scania OmniLink, going to Chemsley Wood. The other bus is operated by Central Connect - the Touchwood Connection.

Devonshire House is a Grade II listed building.
1902. Red brick and terracotta with some stone dressings. Four storeys plus attic;
3 bays. Ground floor of terracotta with 6 windows in recesses with ause-de-panier
arches, those of the 2 outside bays with ogee gablets. The 3 storeys above are
separated vertically by thin polygonal shafts with decorative finials which divide
the bays, and horizontally by wide bands of brick to the outside and of terracotta
to the centre. In the centre, the bands inscribed 'Alfred Bird and Sons Limited/
Devonshire Works/1837 and 1902' with foliage. Within the grid of shafts and bands,
the first floor with couplets of 2-light transomed windows with arched lights and
the second and third floors with central windows of cross type and outer couplets
of arched windows. Arched parapet with, over the centre bay, a shaped gable with
2 arched windows, tilework of a ship in full sail and little pinnacles. Left and
right of this composition, later wings of lesser interest, that to the left of 2,
that to the right of 8 bays. To the left again, railings with the Bird's custard
motif in them.

On the credit card PIN pad at the camera store.
Flickr Friday asked what would happen if you pushed the button. Well this is the result. A credit card debt but a new toy to play with :-)

A video to be projected as part of my FREE DUMB exhibition at Vallery in Barcelona. It was beautifully shot by Ben Sullivan. The Song is Die Neue Mythologen reworking of R Kelly's Number One, their flickr is here.
FlickrFriday PushtheButton Delighted to report that this "free gift" from the Beano doesn't squirt water properly any more ;-)

I did not intend to get that Ant and Dec Push the Button billboard.
The result of a particularly fun game of photoshop tennis which i participated in.
If you are interested in playing please join the Photoshop Tennis Flickr Group
Note I have no plans to watch this or anything new that Ant and Dec present. I just like the design of the image. It popped up in shots last week.
From Parade near Paradise Circus Queensway. Also near Summer Row.
The last Ant and Dec thing I watched was SMTV: Live (that was worth watching). Can't be bothered with them these days.
Horse Market Elst, the Netherlands 2014
Many thanks to everyone who chooses to leave a comment or who adds one of my images to their favorites, its much appreciated. Regards Craig
This white building is currently First Class Snooker Club & American Pool.
It is possible that this was a former garage built in 1955.
If so, then it has a quadrangle facade by Bertram Baxter & Partners.
Was still on the Digbeth end of Meriden Street, heading towards Eastside.
Another Ant and Dec Push the Button billboard on the left. Only Dec in view.
