OK so I probably spend too much time here but this alley keeps producing stuff for me to photograph.

This bear looks like he has had a hard night out on the town.
Found in favourite alley off Leftbank Mall.

I only just noticed when I looked at the developed image that the gutter laying machine was missing a wheel and in the process of being repaired…
Fits in quite well with the whole broken thing…

Broken umbrella found at the corner of Dixon Street and Victoria Street.
Finding broken things seems to be becoming a bit of a theme… Hmmmmm …

This is a case of people thinking I am taking an image of one thing when really I am taking a picture of them.
Its kinda like camouflage but not really.
But that being said I was still taking an image of the broken post that someone must have backed into which has now been repaired but is about to be dug up due to massive roading change (all said really really fast and in one breath)

I guess motor scooters aren’t supposed to go on BMX tracks.
I never found out if it was stolen of if the owner just got angry and destroyed it.

Id like to point out that I use the term “motorcycle” pretty loosely here 🙂
This is a good example of some scanning machines not being able to handle the grain from a film like Ilford Delta 3200 very well. I need to re-scan these so the grain is less mushy.
