People watching...


One of the great things I love about central London is the freedom you get to take street photographs. These are fascinating subjects and I could spend hours just wondering around capturing the small moments of people. This was even more so as I had spent quite a while just looking at the massive canvases in the National. They were also populated with all sorts of people just milling around. I found a certain connection whilst in the throngs outside - the ordinariness of the people just going about their business is what really attracts me. It is not the individual but rather the collective that makes the photograph. Well that is what I think. Whether others have the same feeling is another matter entirely.
