Thanks, I was wondering about that. what's the name your local and how far is that from the pic? iirc i owe a couple.

The Royal Wolf and these guys were heading from there. It's about a block to the left of this piccy

Isn’t that outside Fowlmead? I live in Deal near Dover....

It is indeed, Dr J. And the fisherman portrait is even closer to you: the entrance to Deal Pier.

Margaret Bourke-White photographing in a position you would never see me in.
My feet are tensing just looking at it.

Then Annie Leibovitz paid homage:

There are few modern photographers who divide opinion like Leibovitz, perhaps Martin Parr?, I'm a fan of both but perhaps I'm easily pleased

this fulfills the OP's thread title at least in terms of it being the most expensive photograph ever sold. 99.9999% of people (myself included) will ask why

seems that everyone and everything has to try and do the Abby Road album cover.

Speaking of the Beatles, here's one of them in Plymouth during the filming of Magical Mystery Tour.

Weird that - it really draws you in the more you look at it. Shame athena isn't still going or I'd have had a print in a clip frame.

Correct usage of the pedestrian crossing in town

Surely they are jay walking as they're not actually on the crossing, just near it, I bet they were taking a short cut to food, lazy buggers.

Luckily they were white..ish or the local cops would have taken em out!

Social distancing surely.

Haha probably about right :)

Well I suppose their heads are 2m apart, but I'm not sure I'd want my head that close to the arse in front.

Sometimes you have to track them for days not even getting a shot off. FFS I believed you, I was there on the hunt, I was wearing the "camo", I camped out under the stars. Turns out that you just rolled out of bed and shot the wee cunts from the safety of your balcony. At least you didn't pretend to eat their liver. I can't believe that I held you in such high esteem. ;-)

The hunting regs are very strict out here, all those wee uns can walk around completely protected 12 months a year...actuelly I think there maybe a youth hunt for a weekmor,two in the fall. Having said that, they get the Fish and Game rules same as we do, then they're nowhere to be seen
