A Long Soak


Some day a real rain will come and wash all this scum off the streets.
In the meantime, we'll have to make do with bath tubs on street corners...

Faded Seaside Glamour




Call Waiting


I keep going back to the work of Saul Leiter and I think this and my last photo were subconscious tributes. In the 1940s and 50s he found great abstracts in daily city life and mixed defined detail with smooth blurs of colour in a really beautiful and bold way.

Leaving On A Jet Plane


Happy Easter! 
I'm flying to New York in the morning so expect no posts for a week 
and then a flood of American-themed pics when I return...

Hot water bleeding our colours..."

Nighthawks At The Diner


"Nighthawks at the diner of Emma's 49er
There's a rendezvous of strangers
Around the coffee urn tonight..."
- Tom Waits, 1975
