This picture annoys me every time I look at it so felt compelled to just get it out there and get over it. I see a great shot of Charlie Chaplin on his iPhone and as I take it the guy in the middle spots me and thinks I’m taking a picture of him! Honestly, some people…they think its ALL about them! I know I don’t have the right to be pissed off, I just think of the shot it might have been if the doofus wasn’t waving at me. I guess I could photoshop him out but somehow that feels wrong…and I don’t have the skills. This picture also kind of wraps up phone week for those that have been paying attention. Conclusions? its beyond an addiction. Its an appendage. They should just get it over with and give us all implants.

This is also part of a new gallery entitled “Bed Ridden” and is part of my Abandoned series. Click here to view

I have been taking pictures of abandoned objects discarded on the streets of London for about five years. I have amassed in the region of around 1000 photographs of which I am now stripping down into galleries. This is the second in the series. (to see the first please click here)

I don’t quite remember how or why it started but I found myself relentlessly drawn to documenting these now homeless household items.  I became fixated with their rejected status, cast out into the elements, ejected from their families, once loved and in pride of place, now discarded and forlorn.

It occurred to me that my photographs would also become the last documentation of their existence before they were removed from sight and society, sent either to languish an eternity on a landfill or simply destroyed.  These pictures are dedicated to all you broken (hearted) pieces of unwanted junk.  I salute you and wish you well on your journey to your new home in the sky.
