-Look Up, Look Down Challenge, Week 18
Every Thursday, I publish a post containing photos taken from above or below, and invite you to join in the challenge by posting your own photos with an up or down perspective.
This week, I’m in Manchester and I’m in festive mood.
*********************************************************************************
Manchester Christmas market is celebrating its 15th anniversary this year. A wide variety of food, drink and gift stalls jostle for space in Albert Square, around Manchester’s grand Town Hall.
If you’re in the vicinity I recommend a visit – be sure to keep warm with a steaming gluhwein and a tasty flammekeuche.
And, whatever you do, look up!
And a cheeky shot from beneath:

That will be fun. They really have decorated it well, and the weather “up north” is cold enough to make you appreciate the gluhwien!
