I have been going through my old photographs, I would say archive but I do not feel that they have reached a level to be deemed as such.
The photograph below, when I first saw it was, I thought a failure, perhaps it still is !
But I just could not delete it for some reason, so if I can not delete it what is the point of ignoring it and not showing it.
It is what it is.

Hurry.

@Oldbones, this works for me. The flash of white bottom centre and the out of focus pigeons distract a little but I like the idea and the arrow pointing in the opposite direction to the walker is quite qwerky (if that's the right word).
 
Anish Kapoor Exhibition, Hayward Gallery, London.

Installations built around Vantablack, which absorbs over 99.9% of visible light. From a photographic point of view fascinating to actually see this stuff in real life. It's impossible to distinguish between a black circle on the floor and a bottomless pit!

Looks like the way people are looking at it, they are trying to convince themselves that its not real, but just cant take the leap.
 
On my list to see within the next couple weeks. There's an interesting "This Cultural life" (BBC Radio 4) podcast with Kapoor where he tells the history of Vantablack. Worth a listen I would suggest.
