Occasionally you come across something that just tickles your fancy. Usually for me it's something to do with dogs doing silly things...
But in this instance it was this Trent Parke photograph. Parke is the only Australian photographer represented by legendary photo agency Magnum Photos so his work is quite familiar.
I've never seen this pic though, and when I saw it as part of an exhibition at Somerset House a couple of weeks ago (I didn't really like the exhibition overall so won't mention any more about it!) I loved it. And I started wondering.. How long did he stalk this drunk guy to get a great photo? Or how long did he stand with this sign framed just right waiting for something to happen in front of it? Best. Photo. Ever. The end.
