Smithfield Market, 2011; and Bea, Comet News, Braddock, 2012



Smithfield is the largest wholesale meat market in the UK; there has been a livestock market here for more than 800 years. I took this picture of a butcher when the market opened at 3am. Opposite: as well as selling cakes, tobacco, canned food and Chinese viagra, the popular newsagent Bea would greet me kindly every morning and introduce me to her customers
