This is a regular series of blogs about photographs of the same place taken years apart. I have started to notice is that I have been doing Then and Now photographs unintentionally over the years and have been taking photographs of the same thing or place from the same view or perspective years apart. Now this has come to my attention I have started to intentionally take photographs of the same place.
Over the years I have taken this view from the bridge over the canal to the ICC quite a few times, both unintentionally and now intentionally.
This photograph was taken in September 2026 using an iPhone 17 Pro Max.
Here are the photographs from over the years taken of the same view.
The Black Sabbath Bridge is a tribute attraction to celebrate the Birmingham metal band, Black Sabbath.
