Crossways Tobacconist in Cromer, North Norfolk. This was only one of two frames shot, as it was literally a “spot the scene, quickly fire up the camera” before he moved (which he did, on the third frame).
I just love the juxtaposition, or the irony, or whatever you want to call it.

I was worried the black and white treatment would been seen as too contrasty, as I’ve gone a bit ‘further’ than I am normally comfortable with.
