Worn out tyres, piled up in like a dry stone wall. Behind is a brick building with metal sheeting covering the windows.

Abandoned Victorian brick building with a tall window. A wall in front of the window has been partially demolished, giving a better view of the window. Ghostly white faces have been spray painted on the glass.

Ink drawing of a street corner. There is a pelican crossing at the junction.  The paving stones leading to the crossing are discoloured stone, Except for 2 very obviously cleaned and sterilised sections.

I saw a pavement this afternoon with 2 very clean patches that had been blasted with an industrial jetwash.
It puzzled me as to why only those sections.
Then I realised it was probably to remove blood stains.
