Elgin Avenue, 24th May 2009

A gorgeous warm late spring day, but this litter-strewn scene hardly does it justice. Some float beneath Monet-esque bridges, some are swept by the sea towards fiery sunsets, some drift horizontal across the eyeline defying both buoyancy and gravity, but some are doomed to end their inflated days amongst the joyless and quotidian detritus of urban humanity. There's not a lot to redeem this image, save the notion that such shots serve to enhance the appreciation of the more beautiful.
