Les Miserables

            Candid eye contact street shot taken on Electric Avenue, Brixton, London, on what was market day

(Blurb from my other shot taken there that I already posted: 

"In the 1880s, Electric Avenue was one of the first streets in London to be illuminated by electric lighting in what became an elegant shopping street,. However, it is now grotty and down-at-heel, with a decidedly edgy feel - even in broad daylight.

Brixton is infamous for the riots there in the early 1980s. Singer Eddy Grant wrote a song about them, referencing the poverty and inequality that led to the anger rising in the streets..."
