Robert Brownjohn – Street Level


This is a black and white picture of a cafe umbrella. The type is a very bold, and stands out well even in black and white. The letters and cut out of a white strip along the bottom. This type is a continuous word going round. All the kerning is even. The photo has been taken with a straight perspective, like you were sitting on a chair at a nearby table.
