Thanks for the votes/comments.

The Shambles is the prettiest street in the heart of medieval York so it seemed appropriate to use the name as a title. For about 15 minutes a day the sun shines directly down it providing dramatic strong lighting.

Genuine self-portrait using my new off-board flash to balance the strong backlight (who says you don't need good kit to get good results?). I had a better shot but I really love the natural golden hue from the winter sun in this shot.

I like this quite a bit. Sort a wish there were a few more folks in the scene, but still works for me.

At least I knew this is the name of the place(street), though I wonder what other people will think of your title.

This is fabulous. A true crowd? Not really, but who cares. The long shadows and backlighting are superb.
