Sunset

Posted By Mark on Feb 18, 2012

I uploaded this as part of an album earlier this week but I've only just seen that there's a #SunsetSaturday theme curated by +TJ Kelly and – since the photo garnered some appreciation on Flickr – I thought I'd reshare it. The photo is taken from the roof of the multi-storey car park where I park my car (who'd have thought it?) near where I work; the sky on this evening was a rainbow of colours and I was just pleased to be able to get a semi-decent shot of it before the sun went down.

One Man And His Carrot

Posted By Mark on Feb 18, 2012

I tend to eat my lunch at my desk while working and then pop out for a full hour's worth of walking and shooting at lunchtime afterwards but others will either simply take their lunch break at their desk (which seems crazy to me since you'll always get a phone call or some other pressure to do some actual work if you do that) or they'll head outside and get away from the office toil. This man, spotted yesterday, was clearly one of the lattermost of those groups; I imagine his work was fairly stressful as he took some considerable time to munch through the large, raw carrot that he'd unwrapped from his aluminium foil package, all the while staring across the road at nothing in particular as people and buses passed by.

A Little Bit Of Nature

Posted By Mark on Feb 16, 2012

I felt like getting away from street photography today and since it was quite welcoming for a change I decided to take in a little bit of nature. Admittedly, there are some dead and dying leaves in this album but some flowers were out and some buds were growing, possibly due to the relative mildness of the past few days when compared to just a week ago. To finish there was a spectacularly lovely sunset as I left work and walked to the car park, and as I drove westwards on the way home it was hard to keep from glancing up into the fiery red sky that led the way.

Through The Window

Posted By Mark on Feb 15, 2012

Two posts for #WindowWednesday (+#Window Wednesday) curated by +Simon Kitcher, +Jules Hunter, and +Jason Kowing in one day! And there could have been three since one of the jewellers in Chichester had its front smashed in and a load of stuff nicked too. But I'll limit myself to two. This was one of those shots taken from the hip while walking; I had no idea at the time if anything was going to be in focus but I liked the end result as these sorts of pictures where there's lots of little things to see throughout the frame appeal to me.
