Manchester viral pic New Year 2016

Ok, on the negative side, it's fact that a lot of Brits often drink too much and their revelling can sometimes get out of hand. 

On the plus side, some people have the artistic sensibilities (and the humour) to recognise beauty no matter where it hides.

The original photo posted on Manchester Evening News shows a typical late night revellers' scene, but the pic quickly went viral, and not only because of Mancunians' pride in their city and people (!).









Take a moment to admire the composition, expression and proportions of the original scene before clicking on the links to see more.


One Tweeter even goes so far as to say that the picture fits into the "Golden Ratio". :D
