Photos of South London Suburbs

i actually like taking pics in dodgy places, i live in south and if i search google images for most places you only get few pics and they are mostly landmarks youd find in the area, so i thought, ok, ill do my own collection. i like to take the pics that no one else takes as thats the beauty of it.

I am careful about taking pics in dodgy places, just cos I don't want my camera nicked ( not that it's worth much) or to deal with any agro... plus some people just think you are a strange tourist/ reporter/nosy type... So lady in Liverpool found it odd that I was taking pics of burnt out houses.... and then some Kids in Clapton weren't too happy about me taking pictures of upside down graffitied cars ( that would be because of the stolen moped they had hidden behind them!)
 
I liked the photos.....but I like estate architecture as well. You didnt take any of the big blocks on stilts at Roehampton....now they are famous and have some British heritage award or something..(the architect lives in South of France somewhere)...but Ive seen the same type in other parts of London...cant remember where but it was on a cycle ride with reclaim the streets ......you'd like to design an estate.....now that would be a good idea...instead of toffy nosed architects why not the people who have to live in them...design them?
