Fish and Chips People by phil_howcroft

Fish and Chips People

The standard fayre at most British seaside resorts is fish and chips

This is a streetie shot outside one of the many chip shop establishments to be found at Skegness

I don't know if the "walking chip eaters" add to the shot or distract.

I think it works as a letterbox format

We took a picnic for the beach, rather than trouble any of the said restaurants / takeaways
Think those folk add to it.

They're part of the story - walking along eating chips out of a bag is typical fish and chips people behaviour, so I'd say add to it.
I like your choices for letterbox crops, btw.

Its a busy photo and as such deserves more attention! They are watching you, he has just swallowed, the child is sitting on the chips, the walking girl is thinking "I wish I could afford some fish and chips'!

£5.70 for fish and chips!!! what ever happened to 3d worth of chips! lol This is such a truly British scene, trying hard to believe it is summer, sandals and anoraks!! but you've definitely been clocked! Great shot and love the format.

Beautiful street shot and I like that you added those walking chip-eaters in the picture. Well done for having your own picnic - fish and chips submerged in boiling oil is not quite the healthy food.

Capturing a familiar if rather unhealthy British pastime. Nicely done!
