I visited Newtown again today with a friend for some Street Photography fun. Newtown seldom disappoints, and it certainly didn’t on this occasion. I was a little reluctant at first given the rain, but felt positive given that a lot of the street is covered by shop awnings. Also, rain can create a certain mood which appeals to me in photography.
As we were walking along, I spotted Darren from behind leaning to his left and reading a message that had been chalked into a blackboard against a shopfront. I thought it would make a good photo but he changed his stance before I could take it. He then saw me so I acknowledged him and he mentioned the sign and the reference within it about ‘mankind’.. He seemed like a philosophical kind of a guy and it didn’t take long before I asked him if I could take his photo.
I took a few and might post some of the others, but I like this one in BW with the graffiti in the background.
