Candid street images.
Candidly photographing random strangers on the street. Well, It’s been a wild few years! I’ve been co-founding and curating HIVEArts, an awesome alternative gallery space in Blackpool. It’s become a real community hub where artists can gather, have a coffee and chat about all things creative. But admittedly, all this activity has left me with…

Tea in a Coffee Shop
Sat in local coffee shop drinking tea, as one does in a coffee shop, anyway I sit near the window because the light is fabulous and often times something to see.. ..and see something indeed I did, through the thick glass of the cafe window across the pavement and through another window I saw…

Power Pole
I never leave the house without my camera, always wear comfortable shoes and when on the street I look around and take as many photographs as I can. Am rarely happy with all of them, I might shoot 80 pics and if 2 or 3 are keepers then am very lucky. It’s not always about…

Dress Code
With the right advertising and in the right setting an everyday ordinary object such as a coat hanger can become an extraordinary piece of art. Found while out on the streets of London…how could I resist? In response to The Daily Post’s weekly photo challenge: “(Extra)ordinary.”

she’s in love…the writing on the wall
more street from the Northern Quarter in Manchester…the city is fabulous for street photography, there’s an image everywhere and the writing on the wall in this image made me stop and look twice…a little bit sinister I think, have tried to find the author but had no luck.

beautiful disaster
I just had to get a shot of these fabulous legs while I was out ‘on the streets’ in Manchester..how could I resist, I did manage to make out the words ‘beautiful disaster’ tattooed just below her bottom and loved the guy sitting on the steps with the expression of not really knowing where to…

The man in black
Just another day in Blackpool..love his Johnny Cash style and the look he’s giving me…he really is the main character in this image but I wonder if he was on his own or on a different street would the image still be as good?
