> A few weeks back I did a street photography workshop organised by

> They were all taken during lunch time sorties from work, which is at
> one end of Oxford Street. I used to live five minutes walk from it
> and spent as little time on it as possible (for those that have never
> visited it's one long shopping mecca, with the whole range of socio-
> economic strata represented) - treating it like a river in winter;
> crossing as quickly as possible and certainly trying to never walk
> along it mid-stream. The routine of heading out every day for two
> weeks with a camera forced me to appreciate what I had previously
> missed; seeing the same people doing the same things every day,
> whether preachers, the homeless or teenagers with the drive to sell
> their music direct to the public, stopping people and asking 'do you
> like rap?' - I hope they make it; slowly recognising the subtly
> character of different sections reflected in the types walking the
> pavements. I really enjoyed having the motivation of a deadline to
> come up with some results and, like Bill Barber, would really
> recommend joining classes / courses etc, to focus (ha!) the mind - we
> don't all have Graham's in-built persistence.

> All photos were taken with the E-300 with either the 14-54 or the old
