Oh, the irony!

I seem to shoot a lot of street at train stations.  Partly because there’s nothing else to do when I’m waiting for a train, but mostly because I find stations a bit of an oddity.  They’re such transient places, we only go to stations to go some place else…

BRAP BRAP BRAP!

I was aiming to get a shot of the juxtaposed hip-hop and Indie scenesters, but it looks more like I got shot myself.

In a world of her own.

Ever get the feeling you’re being watched?

Waiting for the train with a little light reading.

If you’re anything like me you find this really hard because you don’t usually get to finish the chapter before the train comes… a little OCD perhaps! ?

Nice to meet you…

The cup had been carefully tucked away neatly next to the kerb, as if  saved for later.  Ever since I took this picture I can’t help but notice that litter louts always seem to place drinks upright down on the floor, as if it’s okay to just leave it there as long as you don’t spill the contents.  It just doesn’t make sense to me!

Abandoned…

misplaced…

forgotten?

Objects like this have become somewhat of a recurring theme in my photographs.  I find these  seemingly abandoned objects particularly intriguing as there’s no rhyme or reason for them to be there.  Why would someone leave a shoe there, and what happened to the other one?  There’s an unknown story to all the bizarre objects we come across on the streets – who, what, where, when….why?
