Across the rooftops, Walsall, Staffordshire
I must have been testing out my new 35-135mm zoom lens when I took this, probably from the grounds of St Matthew's Church, looking towards the tower blocks at The Chuckery. (That old Olympus OM20 SLR feels very heavy these days!) There are actually five towers. Three are clearly seen here, with another tall one poking out above the middle tower. In the centre is Tantarra Street, I think.
More on the tower blocks: http://www.watmos.org.uk/pages/a-tmo_p3.asp
The picture is from circa 1969-1972, I think, and scanned from a monochrome negative.
