The Canterbury Sale Yards

A derelict building façade that was once the Canterbury Sale Yards. Now what is left of it is frequented by taggers, with graffiti all over the remaining walls. For some reason I’m drawn to taking photos of ‘urban decay’! But this has enough blue sky and light to make it kind of wistful almost.
The Strip

Oxford Terrace is known as “The Strip”. It’s near the Avon river and right in the centre of Christchurch. It’s a great place to have lunch or dinner, or just chill out with a cold drink.
Red Chair in the Avon
December 23, 2007 | Filed Under Daily Photo | Leave a Comment
This part of the Avon River is right in front of the Christchurch hospital and you often seen patients sitting out getting some sun - so I’m wondering if this is a hospital chair?
p.s. later when I got home, I wondered why I’d not tried to pull the chair out of the water (as the Avon is very shallow). It occurred to me that when I am in ‘photo mode’ I’m very much on auto pilot and very focused on the shot!
