October 21 2006:
Fabric

I don’t think the lady from the fabric shop had really realised what her wares would contribute to this shot that I took in a back street in Bracknell, a town not renowned for its natural charm.

Upon showing her the image on my LCD, she said that I should have been here 20 minutes beforehand when she had many more rolls in front of the metal shutters.

I need to go back…

And I was late for the party

While you're at it...
...can you lay some carpeting on those stairs?
Faye White21-Oct-2006 23:19
wonderful stairs... the fabric in this setting is a treasure!

love the contrasting patterns/colors in comparison to the stairs. You have such a way with your images:)

Superb image. Fascinating one!

Shame you missed all those other rolls there, but this is a good one with 5 or 6 there all the same. A non-descript stair rail looks suddenly...er...what's the opposite of non-descript? Descript?

something of this image does indeed remind me of Bracknell! Good find!
