I have a thing with symmetry, it appeals to me. And so does contrast. This has both.

Floating Gas Station
Fuji TX2, 45mm, f/5.6, 1/250s, ISO 125
Film: Ilford FP4+
As you sail up and down the Mekong, you cross a lot of motor boats, so it makes perfect sense that their would be gas stations along the way… and yet when you see one you can’t help being surprised! I guess this qualifies as a street shot in a weird sense…
The Jugged Hare
Fuji x100s, 35mm, f/5.6, 1/60s, ISO 500
This is one of those times when I wished I’d had the 28mm converter for the x100s. I always argued that I didn’t see enough difference between 35mm and 28mm to justify buying it, but in this case it would clearly have helped. My back was to the wall, I couldn’t frame any better. Still, I kind of liked it, not just because of the brick façade but because the biker is so off center it makes for an unusual composition.
Vertiginous Rise
Fuji x100s, 35mm, f/2.8, 1/60s, ISO 1250
I’ve always had this fascination for the really deep escalators of the London Tube. Every time I go there I try to capture the steep ride, this is my most recent attempt. I remember being even more impressed by the Moscow underground escalators when I went there 15 years ago. I didn’t do much photography back then, sadly. I’ll have to head back there, I guess.
