More For Your Money

Popped across to road to the market this afternoon to get some money - and noticed this old boy rolling up outside an Iceland store.

I would have prefered a shot from a little further back, but this was as far back I could get thanks to a stall selling bedding and towels. Can you see me taking this one?

Also thought about B&W but decided I like all the red...

This is the same old boy I took for pic 600 - http://365project.org/andycoleborn/365/2011-06-16

Uploading early and during a quiet moment in work as I''ve an evening meeting to attend later and probably won't be home before 10pm...
I like all the red also- great subject.

Very nice! I was chased by an angry lady one of these days - I was taking a photo of a church door and she thought she was in the picture. So i am staying away from a street photography for a while :D
