Brighton

I spent a couple of days in Brighton, where I lived last year. It's a nice seaside town that's big, but not too big. It's a very hip, artsy place with a thriving alternative scene.

Here's the view exiting Brighton Station. It's quite a steep hill but the camera seems to flatten the incline! I'm acutely aware of the steepness of the hill, because I used to live up that center road had to walk up it many times, often carrying heavy bags.

After moving out of the flat near the station, I lived in a house near Preston Park - a much more residential area. The houses are quite gorgeous in this area:

Here are some pictures of the trendy North Lanes, where there are a lot of nice little cafes and shops:

One of my favorite "quiet" spots in the middle of Brighton, behind the Royal Pavilion. I like the gnarled branches of this tree that twist at the top:

And that concludes my mini photo tour of Brighton!
