Hey, I'm a street photographer based in London.

I'll be posting the odd photo here, but I'd love to connect and chat photos mainly.

I liked the colours in this and how the person was half in shade and half in the light #streetphotography

Walking out of frame

Through the gap of a modern office staircase the back half of a person walking out of frame can be seen

I loved the light coming from the street above. Then I wanted to catch someone's shadow on the wall just before the person was visible.

What do you think?

Looking at a modern staircase. Light at the top of the stairs streams in from the street, a shadow of a figure can be seen on the wall at the top

I liked the texture of the foreground and the background with the person on the phone in between as the subject

Empty wine bottles on the ledge inside a window with graffiti dripping down the window on the outside. In between the graffiti there is a man in a green winter jacket on his phone

I saw the wonderful I Am Martin Parr documentary last night. It's a wonderful hour celebrating the great man and his work.

It inspired me to shoot something a bit different on my journey home

#streetphotography
Older man with a weathered face wearing a green Barbour jacket looks directly at the camera. A tube door is behind him, another older gent and someones hand can be seen in the crowded foreground A young blonde woman can be seen through the foreground of a tube door window, which is open and there is a crowd of people in front of her A young man sat a bus stop in the dark of night illuminated by the harsh bus stop lighting. He looks troubled with his hand on his head, looking at his phone. He's also hunched over an Amazon box

It's tough to shoot in the rain, but I do like the way light reflects off the ground when it's wet

I took this in the wonderful MAS museum in Antwerp.

I used an internal beam to split the frame.

What do you think of this style of sub-framing?

#streetphotography
The frame is split diagonally. The bottom right corner is black. A young woman's head and shoulders can be seen looking at a large poster on the wall opposite her

I braved the rain in London last night.

The wet roads in London make for some great reflections.

I took this at Brussels station. I liked how the lines of the window directed towards the lady and how her colourful attire made her stand out

Looking through windows in Brussels station at an angle. At the far end is a lady on the platform facing a train. She wears a red coat and a green hat that makes her stand out amongst the surrounding greys
