LUSAD-Scenes of the Unexpected

Jing Dong
Scenes of the Unexpected, the Incidental, the Hidden and the Unfamiliar!
In Loughborough.
This photo focus on the issues of environment and public morality. The random phone box by the road side is the main object in the photo. Take a close look to the inside of it, there are rubbish everywhere, people wrote words in it. Nobody care about it.

I have selected 7 photographs for the LUSAD public photographic Cope project. The photos are mainly focus on the issues of environment and public morality and also some 'unfamiliar' but also 'common' place in Loughborough.

Another photo contains three parts in it. The main object in the photo is the shopping trolley. People left it fell down the pavement after their shopping. Those three images are identical except the colour, which represents the changing of the time. The trolley was there the whole afternoon, but there was nobody seems to care to move it to the right place.

Two photographs focus on the scenes of a small common rest place at the town centre. In the images, the bin which is the main object is over full obviously. In contrast with the beautiful sky, nice building and relaxing people behind, it looks very unpleasant, but again no body seems to care about it.

I captured an abandon house that is next to the Sainsbury. In contrast with the busy Sainsbury, streets and small shops around it, the house seems very lonely, sad and probably only the pigeons would stay there, I suppose although we might passed it everyday and it is still an unfamiliar place to most of us.

I also had taken some photos at night. The fifth and sixth photos are captured in a small churchyard near the city centre, which looks very nice and peaceful in the daytime. In contrast, the photos of the night churchyard look mysterious, hidden and unfamiliar.
