Description

An editorial street photograph by Nigel Shafran captures a young woman walking along a London pavement while holding a burning newspaper. The subject wears a tailored black blazer and matching trousers, holding up the broadsheet publication as the bottom corner catches fire with visible flames and rising smoke. She is positioned against a weathered yellow brick wall atop a low concrete foundation, bordered by dark metal railings and overhanging tree foliage. A distinctive white street sign reading CHEQUER STREET EC1 is mounted on the brickwork behind her. The composition is horizontally framed with natural daylight illuminating the urban scene.
