I like the way the architect has brought some decoration to these cheap labourers' houses: the curbed doors and windows, the brick stripes. Good, better, bester, Chester!

This looks a lot like a shot by Mike (Observing). I likes his version and yours too. Looks great in B&W.

A very cozy street by the looks of it! Reminds me of something straight out of Harry Potter! (which of course was filmed in and around London) :) How far is Chester from London? It is a neighborhood? or separate district? Sorry - i know nothing of the layout of England! cheers.

@dj.tigersprout: Its not part of London its a separate little city about 4 hours away.

I think this is a very good photo. I love the perspective and the atmosphere. The black and white is great.
