Things Look Better in Black and White; Picture of the Week 24 May 2016

To accompany my new header photograph, here's a close up of the same scene.

I often prefer black and white photographic images to coloured ones. When were these buildings photographed? When were they built? The black and white makes them seem very old, until you notice the windows above the garage door, and in the dormer, top left. Looking at the header picture, un-cropped, tells you more. But can you pin it down?

Ok this was a backstreet in Brighton, just off the Old Steine, in 1971. Photograph taken from the third floor of Brighton College of Art, I printed the original in college, negative is long since lost.
