People waiting around the entrance to the Cameo Cinema, and the nearby bus stop, at night. I always like the old-fashioned marquee above the entrance, not something you see on modern cinemas, and the illuminated sign below it where they still change the names of the films showing, letter by letter, by hand.
When I used to do concert photography more regularly, it seemed so easy for me to bike way across the city, shoot shows without payment and do this multiple times per week sacrificing sleep just to get the photos in earlier and then going to a very demanding day job. This was one such night...I believe it was a Tues. I biked in pouring rain 8 miles each way to photograph The Yeah Yeah Yeahs at The Aragon Ballroom and then biked all the way to The Empty Bottle to photograph the Norwegian band I Was a King and then came home and edited photos all night and went to work the next day. I should also mention that, on this particularly night, I vividly recall how I got THREE flat bike tires throughout the bicycling which made this almost beautiful tragic quality to the evening.
Anyway, I digress...this is some more rambling because I often get younger hipper people asking me "Oh my God! How did you get that photopass!" And then I tell them that I've invested $25,000+ of my own money which I will never recoup, sacrifice all my own sleep, time, and energy, and half the time have publicists either blank out or make me sign a photo contract and I slowly see all the envy fade from their eyes. The highs are high but the lows are way too low.

Please excuse the SL jankness haha.
Voroznia is a fictional city with an inspired theme before/beginning of Chernobyl incident.
Doomers unite, the end is nigh.
Dialogue is from HBO Series Chernobyl!
I felt so small standing on this bridge. You could hear two big thuds when cars drove over the bridge, making the scene more dramatic.

Happy to see this lady with her dog in the center of Antwerp yesterday. Reflections can make the world look much more interesting.

the underpass is a concrete tube that pulls everything towards the light at its end. one man is already there. a small, sharp silhouette, about to disappear. the other is closer. a large, soft blur, still in the shadow of the tunnel. he raises a hand. it is a wave, a final gesture. a goodbye. the distance between them is the entire story. one is a memory, sharp and distant. the other is the present, soft and already fading.
Off Buchanan Street Glasgow, the premier shopping street of Glasgow. I used the small Pentax flash gun which added more colour to the scene.

Less emphasis on our subject and more on the scene... yeah, 16x9 vertical... I'm weird like that. For my best (?) street photos, check www.instagram.com/fergal_flatlight/ where you can see them and ignore the pastoral landscapes and P-shop experiments that I also post here. Just saying....
