Description I used to meet Mick, the baron of Brick Lane almost every time I walked down the lane. Born and brought up in Hackney in 1940s and lived around East End for most of his life. Mick was probably the most charismatic character you could meet there and one of the last true Cockneys around. I started photographing him in 2011 and it was an on-going personal project. Mick passed away on 29th September 2017 after a long fight with cancer. He would have celebrated his 72nd birthday on 9th November. Rest in peace mate, you will be missed.

This guy is amazing. I read about him years ago on Spitalfields Life. I always look for him when I'm at the market (but of course I only go once or twice a year because I live in America). If I ever do see him, it'll be like Christmas ^_^

he's there almost every day, I meet him there at least few times a week so hopefully next time you'll get lucky

This is something for a gentleman. Great shot! Much better than my rotten t-shirts, jeans and army-jackets!

Stunning style. Just about the deepest gorge I have ever seen on a jacket. The upturned cuffs are a nice accent (and a great photo as well, of course)
