Albion Inn, a photo from Leicestershire, England

Photographer's Note

Traditional canal-side pub dating back to the opening of the Loughborough Canal in the late 18th Century. Has a bar, lounge and a darts room plus an outside patio. A long standing entry in the Good Beer Guide, The Albion stocks a range of changing guest beers together with regulars of Sharp’s Doom Bar and Wicked Hathern Doble’s Dog Mild.If it wasn't for the inn sign no-one would know it is a pub as it looks like an ordinary house from the canal side.

This view was taken from the canal basin, pictures of which posted earlier, and comparing the two it seems like a different world.

Hello Marion,
I understood the title, seeing the photo. The composition is romantic with the calm water and a ride. The branches contribute to the beauty of the image. The light, colors and sharpness are very good. Bravo.
Have a nice day.
Cordially

Hi Marion,

This shot stands out with nice composition, great shiny vivid colors (I loved the deep blue tones of both sky and canal) and very informative notes. I also really liked your preference to compose a natural frame using the branches of trees. Thanks for sharing. Best Wishes,
