Three hundred and sixty-odd days of 2008, day 197

The slowly decaying buildings in the old warehouse district in Lancaster.

Originally, these buildings, close to the Lancaster canal, were used to store goods transported on said canal. Now, some of them are offices, one of them's a nightclub, many of them are decaying. These are some of the latter.

Market Day

Three hundred and sixty-odd days of 2008, day 196

Marked day in Lancaster, shot pretty much from the hip.

Not exactly Cartier-Bresson; I half wish that it was raining and that I'd dropped the shutter speed down.

Three hundred and sixty-odd days of 2008, day 128

A couple of boarded-up windows on Sun Street, Lancaster.

What caught my eye, aside from the graffiti above the right hand pane, was the poster.

As you can see if you view the large image, it's a poster for a public meeting to celebrate the 90th anniversary of the Russian Revolution.

I wonder if anyone went...

A white Rhodonedron growing in the grounds of a house in Caton (luckily for your photographer, right next to the road).

About

Graham Binns is a writer, photographer, musician and software developer from Lancaster, England, with far too much hair, a penchant for odd t-shirts and a magnificent hat. He has been making things up for as long as he can remember and has been making code work for long enough to make a living from it.

He has written one novel, which is in the process of composting, and is working remembering how to write before embarking on a second. In the meantime, he photographs things, since it's easier not to have to make the world up in his head all of the time.
