Empty Frames

No reason other than I like the absence of advertising..

set up

Saw this shattered bus stop window and knew immediately I had to do something with it..and so after some umming and ahing I tried to get the shot from inside the shelter..this wasn’t easy because there were people in the shelter waiting for the bus to open the doors and let them on. Well I

she’s in love…the writing on the wall

more street from the Northern Quarter in Manchester…the city is fabulous for street photography, there’s an image everywhere and the writing on the wall in this image made me stop and look twice…a little bit sinister I think, have tried to find the author but had no luck.

The Barber

Passing this barber shop in London recently couldn’t resist getting a shot of the vintage decor and the lovely wooden floor. All that was missing was a whiskered gent getting a straight razor shave but that just means will have to go back!
