A young writer outside Café Orwell

He was standing outside Café Orwell smoking a fat yellow cigarette. Was Orwell a vegan? Because the café offers only Soy milk. It's a dark place, five or six writers tapping away at their illuminated keyboards. There was nobody talking to anybody. This man liked to talk. He lived in a hostel round the corner. They would find him a job if they had any jobs, but they didn't have any.

  1. This is an interesting shot. The wall in the background is a strong element in the picture, with a very shallow use of space. It creates a tension with my eye: it alternates between being drawn to the wall and being drawn to the figure.
