{Ed} It's time for a change of style! I was beginning to find the green a little heavy and the round edged graphics made it a pain to widen. So welcome to the new look, "Mr Moto Rising", courtesy of Jeff Zeldman (plus a little tweaking of my own of course :)

Oxford Street Festival
I was shopping in central London when I happened across a festival to encourage shoppers back after the July terror attacks. Thankfully I had my camera in my rucksack, so I abandoned my shopping plans and spent the rest of the morning walking up and down the street looking for opportunities. As things started to get really crowded, I spotted this guy stood in the middle of Oxford Circus, clearly looking for his companion, occasionally talking on his phone.

The image was processed using channel controls in "Convert To B&W Pro" in PhotoShop CS2 and an effect filter applied to give the grain texture.
