DerelictThursday – Demolition Leicester
iPhone 5S f2.2 4.2mm 1/873 ISO 40
On Sunday we had the big bang. I had planned to go and photograph it, but in the event I couldn’t face it so I went in the opposite direction. I still heard it though, five miles away. And now we have piles of rubble. And dust. Much dust. But this is the old indoor market. Going, going… It feels like the whole city is being demolished. I wouldn’t mind, except that there has been little thought as to what will occupy the space and it’s clear that there will be loss of public amenity. Someone’s making a profit.

Yet another hurried St Pancras shot
I’ve spent most of today incarcerated in Clerkenwell, embroiled in deep discussion of semantic tagging and content taxonomies. I was determined to get some decent shots, but neither the weather or my schedule played ball. So it’s yet another hurried St Pancras shot.
Sigh.
