A Solitary Figure in Birmingham

Walking along Corporation Street, I was watching out for interesting people to photograph when I saw a man watching people walking past. We’d just come out of Grand Central Shopping Centre, the sun was shining, and I quickly walked over to the shaded part of the street. It was too warm for me. Might have been the same for this gentleman.

It wasn’t raining. It was a hot day with the sun beating down. Why don’t more people carry umbrellas in conditions like this? Arguably, getting skin cancer is a lot worse than getting an occasional wetting by rain.
