Work and Pensions

Just found these 2 images lingering on the chip in an older camera. The interaction of sunlight with this building at the end of our street in Brighton, housing the Department of Work and Pensions and a Job Centre (most of whose workers seemed to spend a lot of their time taking smoke breaks directly under our windows), often stuck me as offering photographic possibilities, though I never captured them.

Pro Trans

North St, Brighton

This demonstration, flags and all, marching down North Street back on the 5th of July, was advocating for trans rights. Unseen, to the right was another small stationery demonstration under the Jubilee Clock Tower (I think pro-Israel, but it was hard to be sure). I asked a policewoman what they were about and she told me “all sorts” but she was pretty jolly about it.
