The Settling

#Photography
Photograph using a fairly long focal length of a brick built chimney or kiln (or something else?!). Pigeons have settled on the top, with one circling for a space. A dull yellow wooden door a few feet beneath the top, a metal platform and railing underneath (no external stairs). A buddleia grows from the brickwork off one side. The tops of a few other buildings visible at the bottom and some cables travel across. Large grey sky above.

Photograph of King Henry's Wharves (not wives!). The name painted on the brickwork. Two red downpipes run between two sets of three arched windows.

Photograph of a dapper looking skull with a twirly moustache graffiti'd onto a slightly rusting metal fence on the banks of the Thames. Framed by wooden supports up to the walkway above. The green stained wood shows the level the water often reaches, the skull would be submerged.

Edward St. Flats
Stairwell with ‘Edward St. Flats’ flat directory from ground floor to balcony, red door & red handrails with peeling paint Number 2’s red gate & front yard area with a steel dustbin. Signs of ageing on the supporting wall Edward Street Flats archway and road entrance which leads to the courtyard in the centre. The flats are built in a huge ‘D’ shape with play area & sports court in the middle. This is a really early build, interwar -unsure of exact date- and tbh it still looks great. Social housing (probably mixed now but would have been originally) with loads of community spirit & flair. ++ good location for a notice sign safari Edward St. Flats directory (🩷 that font) and Council anti pigeon notice “SHEFFIELD CITY COUNCIL PIGEONS Feeding pigeons can affect their health and make them dependant on people. Pigeon droppings can damage the City's buildings and put our health at risk Food put out for pigeons can attract vermin such rats and mice. PLEASE DO NOT FEED THE PIGEONS”

An old bridge constructed in the 1950s. The road hasn't been in use for decades, so the bridge is disappearing under vegetation.

A very small old bridge covered with grass, with a little graffiti on the side.

Monochrome photograph. A small bird (I think it's a robin) perched on the highest branch of a tall shrub, the rest of the frame is a grey sky. It is singing, with its beak open.

Vignettes of Ipswich

Been a while, back at it. Images from Ipswich whilst walking to and fro from Uni. Also a Can project inclusion. #Winning...

#photography
An industrial urban scene features a weathered white gate blocking a dark, covered loading bay. The gate is covered in various graffiti, most prominently a poetic handwritten message in black spray paint: "THINK TOO MUCH THE SEA OF THOUGHT FLOWS NATURALLY." Other colorful tags in green, orange, and black surround the text. In the foreground, a dilapidated, dark grey car seat rests on the brick pavement, with a discarded blue cider can sitting on its cushion. To the left, a faded turquoise door adds a pop of color against the gritty, red-brick buildings.

Monochrome photograph of a crow on a mossy branch. It is looking past us into the distance, the light just catching his eye and beak.

Leading the way

Monochrome photograph of a grassy path on a woodland. Two tall pine trees stand taller than the canopy around them in front of us. The sun behind one of them, it is softly lighting the wet path ahead towards a gate.

Smiles, in the chaos and terror.

Monochrome photograph. A driveway between housing is being overgrown by brambles leading to a metal garage. Rubbish left piled against the door. A smiley face painted on the white boarded window emerges from the deep shade. The eerie shadow of a tree looms above on the side of a house.

Ooh, just found a new snooping technique. You can tell which one of the neighbours was out last, by all the cats huddled under their car 😼
