Instant Gratification: 2

I took these two shots in Brixton in the midst of last week's heatwave. The lower shot hints at the heat as the sun was so bright it was trying very hard to over-expose the concrete in the background. 

Both photographs capture plants dominating a man-made space: Above, a climbing vine  has conquered a telephone pole and below is a shot of the renegade flowers which have sprung up on the concrete foreground of a dilapidated shop on Brixton Road. These are images of disregard and disrepair, but beauty as well, I think.
