The tower may dominate the skyline but that barge dominates the canal/foreground. Nice blast of colour

Nice composition and colouring Ted, the tower itself looks pretty weird, who on earth designed it?

A lot of interest in this scene to explore. The canal barges certainly stand out in the foreground in their well kept blue livery. The contrast in architecture in the background is also interesting. I like the train too.
