Photography + Story: Childhood Neighbourhood

[ginge191]

So i went out equipped with a pack of donuts, my sister wanted to get some snaps - i've just got my iphone and thought id try it out.

Deciding where to go, my old photography project was themed around 'Abandonment' and though it would be cool to do something similar again, so we decided to see what our old house was looking like (note the house photgraphed wasnt my house )

I moved out of my house when i was 6/7, im now 22 and havn't stepped foot in the are for 16 years, emotional was an understatement. My house can not be seen but the first picture shows what used to be my neighbours, the following pictures arre a 5 miunte walk from my old house.

Anyone who has had a childhood understands what memories can be had in such a location, as well, this area is close to be as its where my sister now rests, R.I.P.

Theres a few, so i'll post some of my favourites, theres an album found here: http://imgur.com/a/xDEj2

C&C welcome.

Nothing special, but what used to be my neighbours.


And some of my favourites.








If you hadn't noticed, im a big macro-photographer.

Cheers pal - In all fairness, i didnt have the best of childhoods, an alcoholic father, fights and so on, so my salvation was this stream in a sense... guess in this way i was fortunate.
