Love Will Tear Us Apart
The town in it’s attempt to engage with it’s youth put on a Free Music Festival in the park. Some local bands, rap artists ( that’s rap with a C ! ), kite flyers, jewellery makers, hot dog sellers etc etc were along for the ride being as there was not much else to do on this warm saturday afternoon. That’s actually why I went along. Thought it might be a good opportunity to do some, what I call street photography. I was in a colour film mood and I had some saturated stuff in the cool box which needed using up before it exploded.
I was struck by this chap’s tatoo ‘Love will Tear us Apart’ and after a brief chat he allowed me to rattle some shots off. He and his wife were lounging in the sun while their two children played nearby. It’s the juxtapostion of this Song title tatoo and the scorpion tatoo on his wife’s back that intrigues me, coupled with the image of another female in the far distance at the side of his hat. I love the Renee Magritte clouds as well.
