Street Photography in Birmingham

Earlier this week I went up to Birmingham with fellow keen photographer, Ralph, to create some street photography images. Not being familiar with the city I found a useful guide from Oliver Krumes who’s recommendations we used to highlight a map with locations to visit.

We arrived in the afternoon, dropped our bags in our accommodation (only three minutes away) and returned to the fabulous New Street Station to play. Here are my favourites from there.

After a ninety minute shoot we returned our cameras to the flat and went out for a couple of beers. First stop was a bar offering a fine collection of ciders. Nice. From there we found the underground Bacchus bar – delusions of opulence + a nice beer selection. Tapas, wine and a night cap followed, back at the Bacchus, before retiring for the night.

Next morning, an excellent breakfast of eggs benedict at the lovely Yorks Cafe, fuelled an 18,000 step day of street photography. It was hot too. Here are my favourites.
