Bank holiday weekend images.

To be honest, a lot of what I do, photography-wise is people watching. You can learn a lot about a person you've never even met with a candid photograph or two. So this is just a small collection of some of the people-watching I did over the bank holiday weekend and half term in general.

Buses take up a lot of my time, and I feel that you see some of the most interesting people on them. So, these are a couple of my favourite bus pictures.

This image I just love. It was taken at Warrington Bus Interchange, and I think it sums up this man and his job perfectly. Even when he's not on the bus, he's watching them go by.


Now this image has a background. Around Winsford, this woman is known as "Johnny Depp lady", on account of her obsession with a certain actor. And I mean OBSESSION. Tattoos, clothes, the lot. She even claims that her twin babies are his child! And this is the best part.. those babies.. are dolls. Plasic, fake, dolls. And everyone but their mother has noticed.
These  next images experiment a bit more with shadows and contrast, as I was just trying to see what effect shadows would have on an image.


This image is one I played around with a bit on Photoshop, just experimenting with hue and saturation, and I quite like the effect.


This series of images focuses on personal transport.
