The other week when I was wandering the paths of the Docklands precinct with my new photo buddy, I stopped to photograph something that brought a bit of consternation from said photo buddy.
The weathered, derelict, graffiti-covered, boarded-up storage sheds that stare directly into the vibrant restaurant area are not what most people consider to be ‘good photography fodder’. Especially when you are in an area that is filled with amazing bridges and boats and lights…….
But I’m not most people. I don’t see dereliction in these sheds. I see character. I see history. I see stories. I see the photo opportunities.
And only a week later I saw a news report regarding this exact piece of land. Redevelopment is on it’s way and these sheds may not be there for much longer.
