The Mailbox in Birmingham.
Taken on my annual trip to Birmingham for The BSAVA Congress (British Small Animal Veterinary Association) at the ICC and NIA.
Mailbox Birmingham (also known as The Mailbox) is an upmarket shopping and office development in the city centre of Birmingham, England. It serves as the base for BBC Birmingham and houses one of seven Harvey Nichols department stores in the United Kingdom.
The Mailbox is about 300 metres (980 ft) long from front to back including The Cube. Above the front shops it has an additional 6 floors which includes a Malmaison hotel and residential apartments. The Worcester and Birmingham Canal passes along the back with a number of restaurants overlooking.
Previously the location of a railway goods yard with canal wharves off the Worcester and Birmingham Canal leading to Gas Street Basin, the site was the location of the Royal Mail's main sorting office building for Birmingham (hence its current name) which was completed in 1970, replacing the Victorian head post office (now Victoria Square House), in Victoria Square.

Who shoots mailboxes? Me!
Here's a better example of what the Fuji Acros 100 can do (I think). This is pretty much the result of the natural scan, the only bit I did in PS is a slight sharpen for a tad bit of punchiness. Perhaps not required but I prefer to have more punch than not. I love the character you get from film but besides that I think it's the process. Digital is great but shooting film is just different. I was so excited to see the results of my images, imagine if you also do your own BW development. It's a rewarding experience specially when you see you nailed a few shots :).
After a steep climb of 3 miles to the summit, there's an actual mailbox there for you to send your letters to heaven !
you also get to see Spectacular 360 degree views of the cascade mountain range including Mt. Rainier.
Mailbox Peak brings a serious burn, the hike is 6 miles round trip, difficult and challenging, gains 1,000 feet per mile,
located about 30 miles east of Seattle.
This was a Mailbox & boy reading statue, I don't know if it is made of bronze but it certainly is an ex$$pen$ive looking one. Taken in Fairfield, CT
I saw this bonsai sitting on top of a mailbox at one of the street corners in San Francisco and thought it was a cool thing to capture if there were some pedestrians in the background. I waited for this couple to get into my frame and squeezed the trigger.
