We lived in the North East of England for several years and I drove past the awesome Angel of the North pretty much every day. This pic is towards the end of Winter but still cold, with snow and grey skies, sun trying to peek through the grey. If you're in the wonderful North East, be sure to stop in off the motorway and check out the sheer size of this sculpture. 6.4.2008
