photos of numbers :: 179, 30 & 21

Another selection of numbers from London’s East End this week; the 179 is on the wall of The English Restaurant on Crispin Street just opposite Spitalfields Market. I love the way it is framed in the same way as all the old maps, documents and photographs and the way the colour matches the fire alarm just below!

I’ve posted a reflected number before and this 30 caught my eye for the same reason – it’s not only reflected in the glass, but also reflects what’s around it. I loved the unfinished feel of the 21 with all the masking tape and the pattern in the doorglass that reminded me of the background pattern on my blog.

Have a great weekend all!
