This gallery – my newest – confronts the urban weird, although might equally be called sinister Sheffield at the moment. It’s a sort of sister collection to eerie nature, but this time devoted to the strangeness of street corners and the oddities that lurk in and around the built-up and densely populated environments of towns, cities, and their suburbs (which can be every bit as peculiar and unsettling as field and fen, if not more so).
