The Sandal Seller of Athens
Off Monastiraki Square, Athens, along a narrow street filled with small shops, I found a man leaning on the door of his shoe shop.
Evening Light on Cathedral Lane, Edinburgh
Yesterday evening, walking along a road in Edinburgh, I saw that the setting sun was casting long shadows, and as luck would have it, those make interesting subjects, especially the light and dark of sun and shadow. Hopefully, the person in the pub was having a nice evening in there, it was lovely being out.
Shadow Play on a Scottish Street
Shadows on a wall as the sun sets in Edinburgh. I had hoped to go up Calton Hill this evening, but the Beltane fire festival is happening there tonight. I have to be up early in the morning, so I decided not to go, but now I already regret not going! I’d have stayed far…
Streetwise Cat of Athens
A cat we found in Athens, just cleaning himself in the middle of a car park, without a care in the world on a warm May afternoon last year.
The Curious Crow of Bishop Lucey Park
A curious crow watches me, possibly waiting for me to drop some food for him. Bishop Lucey Park several years ago in 2021.
Red Trousers on the Metro Steps
It was early in the morning on a lovely day in Madrid, Spain. I went out for an early walk to capture the comings and goings of the local population and chanced upon this woman coming out of the metro. She probably made this journey hundreds of times. Hopefully, she’s still in Madrid.
A Moment in Red Stripes
I spotted this scene a couple of years ago while out with my photography club. It was all stripes: stripes on his polo shirt, and stripes on the shuttered shop behind him.
City Life Through Generations
What caught my eye initially was the two older gentlemen in the foreground, but I love that the riders of the bike are wearing similarly coloured clothes. Dark and bright, both.
Waiting for the Bus on Grand Parade
A young couple at the Grand Parade bus stop, with their phones out, caught my eye on a mild May afternoon in 2018. I couldn’t help but notice their shoes. Are they matching, or is it just the angle?
Waiting in Colour
Off to the side of Monastiraki Square, near the train station entrance is a Flormar store, and I when I saw what you see above I had to get a photo. If you go there now, you might see that man. He was attending to a local stall and stepped away for a moment.
Get it in the car
Malaga, Spain. October 2018.
Photographing The Giant’s Causeway
The Giant’s Causeway, Co Antrim. A lovely place to visit at sunset but you won’t be the only one there. It’s a popular destination.
