One of the last pictures that I uploaded before the heady delights of e2 and 1000 pixels was of buskers in front of Fenwick’s department store in Newcastle. I liked the model reclining in the window listening to them.
Recently I saw this similar effect in front of M&S – although here the audience has to stand to attention.
So I’ve reworked my original upload to e2 spec, as Version 2, to accompany this shot.
If you have time, please view LARGE.
Thanks to everyone for clicks and comments, I’m amazed at how well the last few uploads have been received - Jackie Milburn clocked up my highest ever score in a day (I think), and even got a vote from a Sunderland supporter.
Thanks for looking.

Excellent image Moira, lots of detail, like the captive audience,
Fred.
Ich lad' dich ein; und
du sagst: "YES!"
Und zum Dessert gibt's Happiness.
Dann kommt der Clou: Es finden sich
du und ich
ich und du
die Musik spielt dazu!

translation:
I invite you,
You say YES
For dessert there's happiness
Then the clou: we find each other
You find me
I find you
And the music plays along
This song came to my mind when I saw these beautiful pictures.
Have a great day Moira,
Johanna
Right shape but no beard, Robert!
I do love pictures of musicians; both these are cracking good'uns (pictures I mean).

At first,I thought the tromboneist had a fag in his hand,but it is probably a dummy.Reckon the audience will be throwing a deaf ear and will not be doing much foot tapping.The guys are giving it a good ''blaw''.Good exposure here with all that is going on.It's another goodie Moira.The original is more impressive large too.

Thanks to everyone - I'm rather fond of both of these myself. And thanks to Johanna for her song. Mick - I've blown the original up, that's the left hand of the check-coat model, definitely not a fag!!

These are great candids - Fun how both sets of musicians have avid listeners

Like this VERY much Moira. Smashing street musicians shot, great stuff.

Sorry I'm late, but here's no; 50 for this wonderful expressive image.
They really look as if they are enjoying what they're doing, & you have captured them perfectly.
Wonderful facial detail & love the movement of the sax player.
I don't think their captive audience, just behind them, are too impressed.
Hilary
Simply first class, reflections, buildings in the windows, wonderful shot
