Have a Seat

I photographed this beauty when I was out working with mum in deepest flattest Lincolnshire, we'd just visited a charming man in a filthy recycling depot and on the way out through the thick mud on the endless bumpy drive I spotted this poor abandoned seat - I like to imagine that some of the staff there would take a seat, have a breather and watch the landscape and that it isn't destined for the skip too soon.....

Hanging around.

We were in Liverpool for a few hours on Saturday and came across these hanging trainers outside the Static Gallery as part of their Trainer Monument installation.

Featured and Another Unloved Sofa.

I've been featured over on Silky Prudence's lovely blog in a post inspired by the Great British Seaside - all the featured pieces are from sellers on Folksy - the UK's very own handmade showcase!

Here's another abandoned grungy sofa for your visual delights - I've tweaked it in Lightroom with an excellent Preset by X-Equals who has a whole range of really subtle and clever Presets which can be yours from his website for the grand price of absolutely nothing!

Have a Seat

I found this unloved armchair lurking in the wastelands near Piccadilly Station a couple of weekends ago and took some snaps with my iPhone, which were of course, terrible. I had my camera with me on my way out of town on Sunday and remembered to pass by again and snap it properly.

There's an unexpected beauty to it.

Two new Moroccan prints.

I've been revisiting my old photos from Morocco (again!), there are so many there that I've never really done much with that each time I look at them again I find little gems I've missed out on.

Here are today's finds!

I shot this classic bent wood chair at the lovely Lowry centre in Salford. I've a real soft spot for taking photographs in art galleries, it's no surprise that they are (nearly almost) aesthetically pleasing, but it's a pleasure to be snapping somewhere so peaceful where people are contemplative and not rushing around being busy and important. Often there are big signs everywhere saying that photography is forbidden, but I always assume that this is to stop people taking pictures of the exhibits and, in the mind of the institution, reproducing them and selling them, making a fortune thus doing the museum/gallery out of major income.....I really don't think that this happens, do you?

I took this a while ago and have rediscovered it and given it a little love.
