Default Manchester, composite piccy

Driving down the Chester road into Manc yesterday, first time I have took this route in a long while, anyway, couldn't resist getting out and taking this pic.

The boarded up church is in fact the old PWL (Stock Aitken and Waterman) studios, closed a few years back now, and awaiting redevelopment. The tower looming over the church - and all of Manchester - is the Beetham tower,(or the 'Manchester Hilton') an amazing construction which is acually the tallest residential building in Europe!

In the foreground is the Castlefield basin, the birthplace of Manchester, some 1200+ years ago.

I kinda liked the composite, although I'm no photographer and the execution is a bit crappy.

PS - I posted these wordings and the pic on another site - I'm quite sure you guys on here are more than familiar with the buildings/location.
