I like this type of photograph...sort of travelogue images. Love the lines, colors and contrast in #1.

I did not know that the pubs open so early ;-)

Brilliant calm and moody shots! First and last are my favorites.

#1 for me, love that view from the way up from the Barbican, looks a little different when the tourists get up.

Great images. Love the composition and angles in the first two.
As mentioned, looks a bit different when all the tourists arrive.

All great but #1 is really special.  The subdued colour and the composition is terrific ....john

Note to self 'Must visit Plymouth'.  Nice images - the first is my favourite.

"I'd like to spend more time there next time"

Because the pubs open early? :P Kidding! ;)

Looks like a scenic place.
