A Black and White day

Yesterday (Saturday), I went to Bethnal Green (again) to see more of the area. It's definitely still an up-and-coming place...a bit rough around the edges with corners, bridge underpasses and alleyways that you don't want to hang around too late after sunset - well at least not when I'm about with my see-in-the-dark Df...

It leads somewhere: Nikon Df, 24mm, f4.5, 1/160s, ISO100




























Behind the Tree: Nikon Df, 24mm, f/2.0, 1/800s, ISO100

  1. The second photo is really superb, Kesh. It invokes conflicting emotions: on the one hand the arm and leg make you curious about the person behind the tree, on the other hand the tree provides a degree of security should the person turn out to be unsavoury.

  2. Hi Björn,

    Initially I took this photo in landscape orientation but there was a bit of trash/debris that I couldn't remove at the time due to the risk of being detected.
    I took the photo anyway but once home I decided that the tree lent itself to a vertical orientation.

    As for security, I was with my friend Chloe who has a black belt in Architecture (like you) and in fast talking :-)
