The Diglis Road

[Hamish Gill]

This road goes up behind the diglis hotel in worcester, it is one of the most picturesque little roads in worcester, I have taken countless photos of it! ... I have always wanted to capture a man in a suit or long coat walking down it - some sort of timeless outfit at least! I nearly crapped my pants when as I pointed my camera up the street this man started walking toward me!


First roll with the Summicron 35mm v3 by Hamish_Gill, on Flickr

@Luigi Vaccaro - this is from the first roll with the Summicron, very happy indeed!

I originally thought the 39 steps but then any of the old contemporary BW's like Brighton Rock or even Get Carter albeit a colour would be where I see this

Love the brick work and the air vents. Really nice exposure, Hamish.

You need to get tom to walk down there with his metal, bang on, sorted

 

[Hamish Gill]

That is not a bad idea!

Picture it, crombie, colt45, bit of fog/smoke and bingo, million dollar shot, and my cut is.....

 

[Hamish Gill]

Cut? I was just talking guns, we introducing knives too are we now?

 

[Kev Pugh]

Guns for show knives for a pro....

 

[Hamish Gill]

Hahaha ... That's exactly what I was honking when I said it! One of the best lines in a film filled with corkers!

 

[Beth Carter]

Cheers Guys...
It's just made it into Flickr explore ... A small victory, but at least now I have had a "real" photo features in there and no just a picture of a camera!
