Lady Vervaine’s comment:
Holga 120N. Kodak Portra 160VC. 30 seconds exposure on bulb setting.

"Everything around here makes me sad.
Everything is part of the dreams that we had
that will never be the way we wanted them to be
when we dreamed these dreams that we had
we wanted them to be the future....

Come on and wake up with me
Hey come on and wake up with me.…"

- Jolie Holland

Been meaning to try the breakfasts at this well-regarded Italian café for years (though obviously not as many years as the place has been waiting for me to show up - “est. 1900”!) - to my shame, I never managed to make it down there while I was working just up the road in Shoreditch. Went there Friday morning to break fast with John Z who’s moving to an amazing job in Georgia. Bacon sausage mushrooms beans and toast. Job's a good ’un. Good luck John.

I was paying way too much attention to my efforts in avoiding over-exposure to be able to see what this chap was queueing to buy, and so failed in both regards. I prostrate myself in apology.

A chance encounter on the way home from the pub. Once more the siren served merely to alert me to the onset of zooming blue. Yay.

A quick backward glance rendered two transport police the endpoint of a swirl.
