The emerging skyline of the southern part of Central Manchester shot in the golden hour just after sunrise in July.
A rare visit to Manchester for me today. I'm much happier in the hills but it was still worth going for a change of scenery and subject matter.
For four days over the August bank holiday weekend, the thousands that attended Manchester Pride 2023 welcomed every single moment of queer joy and celebration - even in the face of a little bit of rain.
Saturday’s Pride Parade (August 26th) - a staple feature of the Pride weekend - began in Deansgate at midday and featured more than 200 floats from organisations, charities, and businesses proudly waving the flag for LGBTQ+ rights and celebrating this year’s parade theme of ‘Queerly Beloved’, to mark 10 years of marriage equality in England and Wales.
As with every Manchester Pride before it, people took the opportunity to dress boldly with colourful and bright outfits. Top fashion trends over the weekend included Barbiecore, crop tops and, naturally, plenty of face glitter.
Evening at Manchester Piccadilly. I'm going for something almost symmetrical here with a shot of platforms 4 and 5 but weirdly giving off a European feel with this image with the stairs leading you into the image.
Hotel and apartment complex, juxtaposed with the remains of an ancient Roman wall, and wild daffodils.
Nope. I couldn't live in a city. Do cities attract weird people or make them appear weird to 'normal' people visiting from the countryside? Or is it me that is weird? Either way I prefer somewhere quieter and less complicated. I like natural beauty and tranquillity.
Life in the city may seem one mad rush but actually this man is stood utterly and totally, frozen still. He's one of those people who stands statue still until you give him some money. I have to say he was marvellously convincing. It can't be easy to hold this position totally still for hours on end.
Manchester Pride festival is an incredible four-day celebration for LGBTQ+ life that takes place across the city every year over the August Bank Holiday weekend. It took place on 25-28 August 2023. There was no Manchester Pride parade in 2020 or 2021 due to the COVID pandemic, returning in 2022.
“This year, especially, there’s a lot of hate against the LGBTQ+ community, and people forget we exist. We have a right to live our lives and love who we love, what’s wrong with that? It’s still a protest, the young ones like it as a party but it is still a protest. But Pride is also still about celebrating and equality. It’s nice to see lots of smaller, more local Pride events that are lovely family days out where parents will bring their children. There’s a kind of event for every single age and gender.”
My preferred view of Manchester is from afar, stood in the countryside. City centre is about 10 miles away from where this was taken from.
