On The Cobbles
Abbie Fallows
This photo was taken in the centre of a British high street, one particularly sparce and empty. The choice to place the image in black and white was done to convey a timeless feel, a connection to the original street photographs taken by Henri Cartier-Bresson for example. This is particularly apt because although times and eras have changed, in many ways the British high street has not. For the large part mundane and repetitive, it still continues to offer moment by moment interesting images, however.
