"A Day at the Races" - a photo on Flickriver

Took this picture with my phone late Saturday night while I was sat in the front of an Italian restaurant on Lower Bridge Street, Chester. I shared this on Twitter & Instagram but didn’t think much about it but it seemed to have gained a lot of interest so thought I would add it to my flickr and facebook pages.

I’m curious, a few people commented that it reminded them of a Beryl Cook painting, a modern Jack Vettriano or even this Manchester Street scene that was talked about in the Guardian a while ago:

I’m keen to know what peoples thoughts are – please let me know…..

Thanks!

Mark
