Guardian Camera Club: Lee Welton on recession photography

No Cuts. The TUC march. He was facing the other direction so I waited and waited then flash, snap, move. He covered his face with the sign which seemed a bit pointless considering how covered his face was Photograph: Lee Welton/Flickr

Aaaarrrgggggggghhhhh. I know I shouldn't say it as I took it but, sometimes you know when you've really got a goodie. So glad I decided to try shooting with the flash held in one hand and the camera in the other on a wide angle lens. Yes I am literally next to him! Didn't get bashed though as I think he realised as soon as their van turned up the masked bunch had left leaving just a couple of photographers, security guards and passers by in the street!

Making A Withdrawal. Anarchist throws bin through the window of HSBC on the corner of Charring Cross Rd and Shaftesbury Ave. Not enough police were on hand to deal with the mob so had to stand and watch along with the tourists and shoppers Photograph: Lee Welton/Flickr
