Walking along the same promenade where I took the previous couple of pictures, I passed some beach huts. Strung between the apex of two was this length of bunting, something attracted my attention to it, perhaps it was the colour.

I saw the potential for this shot from some distance, so eased myself closer and closer – to an increasingly frantic alarm call from the gull (the cockerel was pretty quiet). I expected the gull to take flight just as I got into the right position, like these things do, but I was lucky and I managed to get a couple of shots. Unfortunately, I had to drop a down a fair bit from my original position to get the juxtaposition just right – it would have been nice to get a few feet higher to get more of the gull – instead of it being hidden by the chimney pot.

There I was, filling some time during the lunch break at a ‘Day School’, wandering the back streets, as you do, looking for interesting interplay between shadows and walls/objects, when the shadows on the wall attracted my attention. It was a couple of moments before I realised exactly what I was looking at.
I sure hope the door was a fire exit, though, as it’s an outward opening door, I suspect it was. What I really liked was the provision of the shovel for any would-be rescuers to clear the way!

Two more racing pictures
Here They Come.
At The End of the Day
I think there are enough visual clues in the picture not to need any more context.

Footnote: swapped image ’cause the one I put here originally needed a bit of sharpening – need to review my workflow methinks.
