Greenwich, London

Greenwich, London

Greenwich Market, the town centre, the park, the tourists at the Observatory. The contrast between the grand architecture and the tourist industry that surrounds it is very Parr territory.

Best time: weekend for the market. Summer for the park crowds.

Look for: tourists interacting with the Meridian Line. The contrast between the UNESCO World Heritage grandeur and the reality of a day out.

Camera Settings

Flash in daylight for the Parr approach.

The Assignment

Photograph the tourists, not the architecture. What are people actually doing here?
