Taken by Lieutenant George Lempriere, an intrepid aviator from West Midlands, this image transports us to the bustling streets of Birmingham during the early 20th century. Circa 1911, when aviation was still in its infancy, Lieut. Lempriere's daring balloon ascents became a spectacle that captivated both locals and visitors alike. Against the backdrop of a vibrant street scene, we see his majestic hot air balloons gracefully ascending towards the heavens. The photograph captures not only the courage and audacity of those involved but also showcases how transportation methods were rapidly evolving during this era. As onlookers gather with awe and excitement, one can't help but imagine their amazement at witnessing such an unusual sight amidst their everyday lives. This snapshot offers a unique glimpse into England's rich history as it unfolds before our eyes.
