I See You

A person sitting on grass with their back to the camera, accompanied by a brown dog, in a park with flowering trees and various people scattered around enjoying the outdoors. — Pavilion Gardens, Brighton

I’m not sure what this dog was looking at, but he maintained this pose long enough for me to get out my camera, get it on and focused and take a few shots. He was very still and focused.

Where and When my Father was Born

A person wearing a vintage jacket with 'BRITAIN 1934' on the back stands in a subway station, with various signage indicating directions and lines. — Columbus Circle subway station, New York

I’ve been casting about for a new project and not taking a lot of pictures lately. Hence it’s back to the archives for now. I’m looking at images I failed to keyword in my catalogue – that should also mean I haven’t posted them here before.

Night Walk

A person walking away down a wet street at night, with a pub illuminated in blue light in the background. Several cars are parked nearby and a bicycle is leaned against a post. — Station Approach, Hove

I liked the combination of yellow and blue light in the misty night, with the mystery of the silhouetted pedestrian.

In the Cold

A silhouette of a person stands behind a wet glass pane, with a colorful poster promoting health and safety in cold weather visible in the background. — Goldstone Villas, Hove

Night Passage

A person walking up a set of dimly lit stairs surrounded by colorful graffiti on the walls at night. — Conway St passage, Hove

Loaded for Bear?

A large dog with a thick coat is lounging with its front paws resting on the window of a parked vehicle, while a person's hand is visible in the driver's seat. — St James Street, Brighton

Sunburst Pier

A painter was working on a medium sized canvas off to the left, with the pier columns prominent in the painting, forcing me to look again as we walked past the pier and notice, once more, how photographable it is in every different light.

At Home

Lee Crowd

Although we had timed tickets for a Monday morning, upon entering the Lee Miller exhibition we were met by a scrum just to get close enough to read the introductory text. This continued, annoyingly, throughout the otherwise excellent and well curated exhibition, breaking Miller’s career into 11 phases. As we wanted to see it all, it took 2½ hours, patiently waiting for other viewers to move on before we could stand, briefly, in front of each image.
