I was determined not to be beaten by this week’s Wednesday theme so I took my camera with me when I went to school this morning and spent my lunch break prowling round the city centre looking for people who looked like they were lurking! I had expected to use a shot of people sitting inside the city’s market cross but in the end I liked this fellow better. The Chichester Festivities start this Friday and the annual exhibition of sculptures in Paradise (the grassed area inside the Cathedral Cloisters) was being prepared (see here for my visit to last year’s exhibition). This chap was standing towards the back of the space playing his saxophone and it seemed such an unusual thing to be doing here that he just had to be classed as a ‘lurker’!

Yes, I agree.....great lurker....great shot! lookagain · 2009-06-24: 13:17

Great shot, Helen! ????? · 2009-06-24: 16:58

I always feel uncomfortable taking pictures of people - I feel more like a stalker than a lurker! Far better to take statues that dont mind. busybee36 · 2009-06-25: 05:54

Wonderful find. Just makes me think what was the story about why this little guy was placed into that spot of the campus? CKDay · 2009-06-25: 08:05
