Someone has broken one of the panes on this slightly dishevelled looking phonebox, through which the battered but functional payphone can be seen.

I’m a sucker for photos like this one. It’s a mundane subject, but the tones and depth of field are really nice. I love the way the barbed wire fades in and out of focus as it enters an leaves the shot.

This was a quick snap that I took in the car after a walk around town. It had begun to rain, and the water on the windscreen coupled with the reflection of my parking ticket seemed to be something worth photographing.
I don’t know if anyone else would agree, but I like it.

Just a couple of suburban dwellings, but I liked the way they were lit by the low afternoon sun while in the background the sky is dark with heavy cloud.

This is the side of the Abbeydale Picture House in Sheffield. Opened in 1920, the building is undergoing a gradual refurbishment as a community arts centre.

One of the rules of composition is the “rule of space”. This states that there should be more space in front of an object moving through the frame than behind it. I’ve broken that rule here, but (to my eyes at least), I think the shot works well nonetheless. The fact that the man is closer to exiting the scene than entering it seems to add a sense of urgency (which is also helped by the motion blur).
But what do I know. 🙂
