Grim in't North

I like how this shoot turned out because it manages to capture both the busy successful side of the north while also capturing the grim and economically deprived side, which I feel paints a fuller picture of the state of the north and how it should not be viewed as just a grim place but it should also not be seen as a perfect place, the same as the south. There are problems that need to be addressed but the presumption that the north is grim is harder and harder to prove as the depth of your search goes.
