Interesting slice of city life, love the way you see into the room across the way and the iron work.
Paul Fleming
I like the way he’s so captiviated by his book, he doesn’t see the blur of activity around him. Maybe he doesn’t want to see the activity, either

This is brilliant. How you capture light, shadow and so much mood in your work is exceptional. I’ve been slowly going through your wonderful work but for some reason I keep coming back to this one for one more peak… I dont know why and I cant quite put my finger on it, but i love it. Look at his feet! I love how he’s sitting there engrossed in his book with his feet curled together… The vibrant and almost dreamy brightness in the background also highlights how absorbed he is in his book and how everything else is merely a blur…
Wonderful work and a fantastically impressive gallery :-)

Gee thanks Adam. I’m flattered and humbled….. One of the things I personally love about this image is the bright white light profile walking past (don’t ask me I have no idea). It seems to imply a story….which may be comig directly…from the book ;) Thanks heaps for the comment, i’m really chuffed.
