Lever Street Downpour - Manchester in Monochrome

Shot from a low and cinematic angle, Kris Massey captures the raw poetry of a rainy day on Lever Street, Manchester. Torrents bounce from pavements as silhouettes scurry past shuttered shops and glistening street signs. The photo's black and white palette amplifies the atmosphere — soaked streets, blurred motion and the steady hum of a city undeterred by the weather. A love letter to Manchester's resilience and rhythm, this image finds beauty in the everyday drizzle that defines it.
