very nice, i like how its black and white, it gives it a gloomy, old fashioned sort of look

Yeah it's pretty old . The whole city seemed to be built on a Viking settlement which i think it gets it's name from as the Viking's called it Jorvik.

Thank you. The colour version was really washed out as it has been raining so i thought converting it might make it look better. I'm glad I did now.
