The Last Turn of a Wheel.

A quick little post from me today.

Manchester has had many different attractions in its time. But one of the most prominent is the Manchester Wheel, it has been with us in many different incarnations for almost 10 years now, first arriving in 2004 and it has always been in the same location at Exchange Sqaure, right in the heart of the shopping district of the City Centre. Though come this weekend on Sunday 15th April at 6pm the wheel will turn for the last time and close in preparation for Exchange Square to be used for Olympic events this Summer in Manchester.

With that in mind I decided to test out my new wide angle lens, with getting a photo of the Wheel before it leaves Manchester, and here it is, click to enlarge the image.

After this weekend if you want a view from high up above Manchester, you will either have to work in the office blocks in Manchester or be lucky enough to go to the 23rd Floor Bar at the Hilton. 

I hope you enjoy the photo, feel free to leave any comments – till next time.

Thanks
