That’s amazing - the light and reflected light just look real ![]()
Sure is.
I had to check it wasn’t a Bill Brandt or Sirkka-Liisa Konttinen photograph
I would have taken it for a photograph had you not pointed-out it was a pencil drawing!
Leeds.
Technically it’s superb.
For me it lacks something, a focal point.
Something, anything, on that road. A dog, an abandoned bike, a kid walking home, just something to take the eye.
I will have to bow to your suprior knowledge of Yorkshire ![]()
I understand what you mean Paul but I still like it as is - the hovis lad and his bike would probably be a good addition. ![]()
My grandad worked in Boston for the railway - he was a painter. At some point (maybe towards the end of WWII, or just after) he was part of a team painting a bridge - this one, I think
when the rigging gave way and he fell into the Witham. He hit something on the way down and broke several ribs. His mates got him out of the water and he was taken to hospital but he developed pneumonia there and that, in turn, somehow damaged his heart. Angina meant he never had a ‘proper’ job again. A silver lining, for us, was that he had free time to look after my sister and me when we were very young but my mum was still working. He was a lovely man - caring and gentle. He died of a massive heart attack when he was just 63.
Nice photo. That’s actually a really good album too ![]()
LOL, just noticed the watermark, another Michael Ochs. How many times has he popped up in this thread? ![]()
First glance that is Alexi Sayle and Sid James ![]()
Bob Hoskins and John McEnroe.
I was seeing Al Capone and Frank Bough.
Haha, the Hoskins likeness is uncanny
Henry ‘splash it all over’ Cooper.
Yes, I saw our 'enry chatting with Harold Leak.
