The Man of Fire

Sometimes it pays to be up at 6am.

This iconic 35ft statue in Hanley on the side of what was Lewis’s/Debenhams is the Man of Fire also called Jack Frost and The Spikey Man has been in place since 1963

It has often caused fear among children in the city, with many imagining him falling off (which he never has) or chasing them through the streets of Hanley.

Satellite lock was poor and with the low light it felt like a manual flight as there was a lot of drifting

I really like the moodiness of this film as I think it makes it more sinister.

Bold. And to the point. Music alone gives this all the context it needs. Like it.
