I like this one. I think Nita noticed the antiquity of the shredded advertisement posters first. We were walking down one of Wisbech’s old alleyways – this leading from the river, to the old market, when she spotted what we all pass everyday without seeing. I had to step back into the back doorway of a nightclub, in order to frame it through the Super Takumar 55mm lens. Just after I pressed down the shutter release on the Pentax Spotmatic, I was pushed in the back by a cleaner exiting the club.
We have pillars in the city where people can post posters, some advertising, some death notices (esp close to churches). around once a year they cut away the posters and it looks like a tree ring of time.
I really like the textures you captured in this image and it makes me want to rip away more and see what lies beneath.
Thanks for the positive comment Benjamin. Yes, it makes me wonder what was advertised there.
