Living at the edge of Kings Cross

I was stunned this evening that my photograph of an infamous Kings Cross character had won the Kings Cross Photographic Prize!  The photograph was taken a split second before she photographed me during her nightly beat in the Cross. Sadly I found out that had she passed away recently. Rest in Peace dear soul...

Another of my Kings Cross images was a finalist in the exhibition.
This was taken outside my apartment in the early hours of the morning.when I lived on the edge of the Cross. I was very amused to discover the image was moved to a location in the exhibition where children would not walk past it.
