Closing down sale. #Photography #UrbanPhotography #StreetPhotography

Photo of a shop window in which a large red poster with the words 'Closing down sale' are printed in white letters. The window reflects the scene outside: an old woman sitting on a seat, holding a blue bag and leaning on a wheeled walker. Somehow this sums up the current state of town centres.

Look both ways. #Photography #UrbanPhotography #aofoto #AlFrescoAppliances

Photo of a line of four wheelie bins standing out side a door. On the path, next to one of the bins is a discarded microwave. A sign by another, larger bin warns of a tramway and to look both ways, as do painted letters on the path.

Ephemeral. #Photography #UrbanPhotography #StreetPhotography

Photo in the basement of the Tate Modern with concrete walls to the left and diagonal concrete buttress-like structures to the right. In the triangular shape formed can be seen a black figure, blurred due to the long exposure. In the background a security guard with high viz jacket has his head bowed, presumably looking at his phone.

Evil elephant #Photography #BlackAndWhite #HRGiger #AccidentalArtist #aofoto #aoFotoCall

Black and white photo in portrait format of the detail of a tree trunk with no bark. Some holes have formed in the wood and below these a short, stubby branch, broken at the end, protrudes with a slight upward curve. It kinda, sorta looks like an elephant with an attitude - if you squint, um...

Side chapel. #Photography #UrbanPhotography #BlackAndWhite #minimalism #aofoto

Black and white photo in portrait format showing a part of a white room, with a light-coloured carpet. Inside are two lecterns, one behind the other. Facing them are two chairs, one of which has its back cut off by the edge of the frame. There's a feeling of contemplative peace about the scene which, I guess, is the idea of the room.

Not sharing. #StreetPhotography #Photography #BlackAndWhite #aofoto

Square format black and white photo of a man in a light-coloured hoodie and a black dog on a bench at the seaside. The man is bending slightly to the left as he eats the fish and chips on the bench. The dog is sitting with its back to the man, its head slightly bowed as it looks away to the right. Clearly no food has come the dog's way and it's perfectly illustrating the description of 'hangdog'.

The sacred and the profane. #Photography #UrbanPhotography #aophoto #cathedral

Photo of a stained glass arched window, containing predominately richly colourful red and orange glass. The window is set in a wall above an open door that leads to a somewhat mundane service area containing cleaning and servicing materials for the cathedral.

Adrian Chandler @adriansea.bsky.social · 29/09/2026

Wonderfully atmospheric images, Jordan. I really like them.

Upper floors. #UrbanPhotography #Photography #UrbanGaze

Square photo looking up at the tops of three high-rise buildings. Each building has a different facade design and they are separated by white sky that forms a 'T' shape. The crick in my neck has nearly gone now.

Adrian Chandler @adriansea.bsky.social · 26/09/2026

That's a great photo - the figure in the gap is just perfect.

The red bottom rung on the ladder is a perfect touch.

Cheers Tom. It's one of those where it would be rude not to.

Bin line. #Photography #StreetPhotography #UrbanPhotography #UrbaGaze #aofoto

Photo of a line of seven wheelie bins standing on a pavement against a wall made of blue bricks. Above the bins, in the middle of the frame, is a blind window niche with a thick, stone windowsill. 'Which one was it that stole your phone, madam?'

Window, framed. #BlackAndWhite #Photography #UrbanPhotography #UrbanGaze #aofoto

Black and white photo, in portrait format, of an old, metal window frame, comprising of many small rectangles, without any glass in any of them. Through one of these small frames can be seen an identical window on the far wall, which is otherwise in darkness.

Alfresco Laundry Facility #Photography #UrbanPhotography #UrbanGaze #aofoto

Photo of a white washer-dryer (Samsung OptimalDry, for you household appliance enthusiasts) standing in front of a wall made of substantial stone blocks. To the left are two heavy wooden doors, surmounted by an arch. A straggly plant stands in a square pot to the left of the door.

Adrian Chandler @adriansea.bsky.social · 16/09/2026

Workshop. Now, I put it down here somewhere... #Photography #UrbanPhotography #UrbanGaze

Photo of a room filled with tools, bottles, boxes and machinery. Light comes through a window with many small frames of glass, in the far wall. The light and interior is slightly smeary and hazy due to the dirt on the glass the photo was taken through.

Seine Scene. #Photography #StreetPhotography #UrbanPhotography #UrbanGaze #Paris

Photo in portrait orientation of part of the footpath that runs alongside the River Seine. A man bends at the waist to address a small dog that's standing on a low wall next to the river. behind the man a set of stone steps rises to the top left of the frame and, near the top, a woman in purple can just be glimpsed.

Hung Out To Dry. Having fun with depth of field (I know how to live). #Photography #BlackAndWhite #UrbanGaze

Black and white photo of raindrops attached to a line on a rotary washing dryer. Just a single line and raindrops is in focus, the rest are more blurred the further away they are. The rotary dryer supports can be seen as blurred diagonal lines at the bottom of the frame. Fun with depth of field.

Mist on the Fells. #Photography #BlackAndWhite #Undulating #BlueSkyArtShow

Black and white photo of the sides and tops of mist-covered fells, aligned so each one is behind the other and recede into the mist and distance.

Reflective. #Photography #StreetPhotography #UrbanPhotography #UrbanGaze

Photo of a man walking whilst looking at his phone; on either side of him are red-framed noticeboards. The man and frames are reflected in a large puddle beneath him.

Adrian Chandler @adriansea.bsky.social · 06/09/2026

There's a very melancholy feeling to this photo. Love it.

Whizz! #Photography #BlackAndWhite #UrbanPhotography #UrbanGaze #Minimal #BlueSkyArtShow

Black and white photo of the silhouette of a man on an escalator, viewed from the side. Due to a slow shutter speed the man's figure is blurred as he travels from right to left. The escalator has transparent sides, so only the handrails are visible as diagonal lines across the frame. This photo was made inside the Library of Birmingham, an interesting space for urban photographers.

Pyramid. #Photography #BlackAndWhite #UrbanPhotography #UrbanGaze

Black and white photo of a glass-sided building. The viewpoint is looking up along a corner of the building, giving the impression it is pyramidal. Near the top on the right hand side are five partly open windows that interrupt the smooth side. This is the Black Diamond building in Copenhagen.

Adrian Chandler @adriansea.bsky.social · 02/09/2026

I'm the same. I enjoy photographing inside parish churches, seeing how people have interacted with them. None near me are as grand as Lavenham seems to be.

Under a big sky. #Photography #Landscape #BlackAndWhite

Black and white photo of three men walking through a field of long grass. The photo was made from a low viewpoint, so the men's legs are hidden by the long grass. The grass occupies about a third of the frame; the sky contains some white clouds and dwarfs the three men who are in the bottom right of the photo.

Adrian Chandler @adriansea.bsky.social · 28/08/2026

Thanks for the recommendation Bob. I'm now following Madis.

Grill. Grilled? Grilling? #Photography #UrbanPhotography #UrbanGaze #StreetPhotography

Photo of the corner of a restaurant. The windows are frosted and have a green tinge, the word 'Grill' and some wavy lines are printed on the glass. A light shines from within silhouetting a man and a woman who are facing each other.

Light my way. #Photography #BlackAndWhite #Monochrome #Paris

Black and white photo looking up a flight of stone stairs. On the left is a tall wall, on the right a stone balustrade. At the top of the stairs, framed by the wall and balustrade, is a street light with a bowed frame supporting circular lamp shades at each end.

Balance point. #Photography #UrbanPhotography #UrbanGaze

Photo of part of a building showing a v-shaped support, its narrowest point touching the ground. The top two-thirds of the support is covered with a dull grey metal cladding which continues up onto the main part of the supported building. The underside of the building can be glimpsed in the shadows on either side of the support.

Open water. #Photography

Photo containing a small section of the end of a wooden landing jetty jutting out diagonally from the bottom right corner of the frame into blue water. Diagonally opposite, in the top left corner of the frame is a small sailing dinghy with an orange and white sail and a woman leaning over the side to steady the craft. Between the two is a large expanse of empty water. Rules of composition - never heard of them.

Orange garland. #Photography #UrbanPhotography #UrbanGaze #VW

Photo of part of a white and orange VW campervan. Above an orange side panel is a window and a small, crescent-shaped vent, surrounded by white paint. Through the window can be seen part of a seat back over which is draped a garland comprising of white and orange flowers.
