Ghost town

Last week I took my car to Stourbridge for its annual service. While waiting I walked down to the High Street to kill some time and found it to be deserted. So different from last year's visit as it's normally buzzing, especially with students as there is a large college here.

Oh what a poignant shot. Love that station entrance.

An eerily familiar sight during lockdown. Beautifully composed.

[Diana]

I agree with both the above, such strange times.

[Casablanca]

So weird to see such places empty. Makes a super B&W shot

[Babs]

Wow looks like a ghost town What a difference Covid makes.

[Esther Rosenberg]

Great black and white, moody sky, and no people... kinda weird indeed.

[Nina Ganci]

excellent b/w
it is eerie going into the big towns and finding them empty

[Peter Dulis]

works well in monochrome

[Clive Handscombe]

Great composition.

[Fisher Family]

This is a beautifully composed shot. Deserted high streets do seem very strange, but then when the centre of York became quite busy I found that very strange and quite frightening as well! Fav!

Lovely capture of the emptiness - I wish our high street was deserted like this!

[Margaret Brown]

Such emptiness well caught

[Tim L]

As a photo it works very well, an interesting viewpoint and a nice composition. But the place itself, damp and gray and devoid of people looks utterly grim.

[Milanie]

What a difference a year made. Hope this time next year it's filled with people.

[Delboy79]

Great urban landscape.

[Yolanda]

Love clarity

[Pyrrhula]

It sure like that but also you`ve a great opportunity to capture the nice street atchitecture without people disturbe it. Fav. .

[Clay]

Nice photo! I especially like the light fixtures against the sky background-that in itself might make a nice minimalist photo.

[Shutterbug]

Works really well in b&w.

[GaryW]

Out town does not look that way...there are people everywhere.

[Dione Giorgio]

Beautiful shot. The town must be very pretty from what I see. Yes, everywhere looks strange with Covid constraints but that is important if we want to get rid of this killer.
