Decided to get a little mental with Photoshop CS5 and the 3D colour effect. This is the outcome of it.
Birmingham Museum & Art Gallery - Corporation Street, Birmingham in March 1914

Now that I know that you can take photos inside the Birmingham Musuem & Art Gallery, thought I'd go along and take what I wanted (not the paintings).
This is in the part of the museum near Great Charles Street Queensway.
On Friday it opened at 10:30am and I got here just in time before the crowds showed up.
Plaques in and around the entrance staircase area near the Chamberlain Square entrance.
Was only here for half an hour.
But at least I ended on these plaques!
Mural / painting of Corporation Street, Birmingham. March 1914. by Joseph Southall.
Wall painting on the east wall at the top, Corporation Street in 1914, Southall's most important buon fresco panel, painted 1915-16. The title refers to Southall's horror at the outbreak of war; the figures are portraits of friends, with the women in the latest fashions, evoking a lost peaceful world.
