Reflections On A Rainy Day

Trying to stay under cover on a rainy day I spotted this window to catch a reflection in…Yes that’s me on the right.

Witness Statement

Just finished the last episode of “The Wire” last night so I thought it was fitting to put up a police image 🙂

This is a shot on Manners Street that I alluded to in an earlier post with a speeding police car. He was getting witness statements from an accident scene where someone had been hit by a bus (no red ribbons involved) I did however hear the witness say that the bus sped up through the intersection (possibly to avoid stopping at a red light)…

Another Sleeper And A Poll

Yet another shot of a sleeper from last weekend… I think this one may be my favorite so far.

Also below is a poll to see which suggestion would be best for renaming the “sleeper” category…Take a few seconds and help me out 🙂

Will do a Homage to Sleepers next week with the poll results…

Short Sighted Texting

I guess she forgot her glasses since if she needed shade she could have just moved four steps to her left 🙂

Whats Going On?

Film is great for surprises… I didn’t notice what was going on in this image until I was just about to post it with the set of images from the Performance Arcade from a couple of weeks ago.

So what is happening in this image?… Really I have no idea… Anyone want to have a guess?

Yet More Sleepers

Seems I cant go anywhere these days without catching a couple of sleepers as I go… These are from last weekends roll of film and Im pretty sure I got another couple this weekend as well… May have to make this into its own category after the death of “The Alley”

Death Of An Alley

So for those of you who read this blog regularly (you know who you are) will know that this alley is a source of great photographic material and indeed has its own category. The graffiti changes on a weekly basis and small installations of broken things crop up to be photographed before disappearing hours later.

Well I guess someone got annoyed at the above coolness and possibly the rank smell of urine and empty paint cans which wasn’t so cool and has put up and padlocked gates at either end 😦

Oh Well RIP The Alley…

Fountain

This was a bit of a lens flare and shutter speed test I did the other day. I think Rollei did pretty damn well!

Waiting

Waiting for customers before the start of the Dragon Boat racing last weekend…

Rollei Police Pan

Panning shots with most cameras can be difficult… When your camera is inverted left to right you pretty much have to wing it.

Still even though I missed most of the car the part I did get was pretty bang on… Might have to try it again.

They were racing up to Manners Street where yet another person had been hit by a bus after then whole road layout change thing from late last year… I have that image for another post.
