It has been a busy few days photographically, particularly as I’ve been keen to explore the new metering.
On Saturday we went out early because I wanted to photograph a derelict area just below the Orchard Estate in Coldbath Street. Early, because I didn’t really want to meet inquisitive people. It didn’t go to plan…
It is a big space overlooked by several big blocks of flats and I didn’t want the occupants thinking I was pointing a camera at their windows. It isn’t the kind of place to do that. After I took this photo I got the sensation that I was being watched so I looked up. Staring down at me from a balcony were three enormous Pit-bulls. As we made eye-contact they started barking, deeply and with echoing resonance. And of course Gizmo felt obliged to bark back. Friends! That was most peoples Saturday lay in shattered and all hopes of photographing surreptitiously blown away as faces came to windows. Exit pursued by howling…
Just around the corner, some garages. Inverted As or Vs with a line through?
Well, we drank coffee in Blackheath and around noon when the sun was overhead I grabbed these shadows in the playground
