Casablanca

This weird old house on Manor Road in Stoneybatter is quite a landmark. Most people who live around these streets know about the old lady who lives in there, but for those who dont:

She's been known to wear theatrical ballgowns and over-the-top make-up. She leaves out one bin bag per week. A really really small plastic bag with no bin tag or anything. Sometimes the bin men take it away out of the kindness of their hearts, but often the bin bags are just left sitting there until birds peck at them, or neighbours take them away.

Her roof is falling apart, so in the winter her house must get flooded. I wonder does she just stay downstairs?

These photos of Sarah-Louise Conway were taken on one of the sunniest days of the summer. I used 35mm slide film on my colour splash camera. I didnt use a flash, because I didnt need to, but next time I will definately experiment with coloured flashes on this film.

I also shot the entire 36 frames in stoneybatter with my skirt accidently tucked into the back of my pants. Nobody told me until I reached the Haypenny bridge. (sarah didnt notice because she was standing infront of me the whole time)
