1981 Eighties Everyday Martin Oneill Piccadilly Wait Manchesters
EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the essence of a young couple's quiet moment of anticipation in Manchester's Piccadilly Bus Station during the 1980s. The scene is set in the heart of the bustling city, with the dimly lit bus station providing a stark contrast to the bright neon signs and bustling crowds outside. The couple, dressed in casual attire, huddle together for warmth as they wait for their bus after a night out. The man, with a determined look on his face, clutches a takeaway bag, while the woman, her arms wrapped around his waist, gazes off into the distance, lost in thought. The photograph, titled "Waiting for the Bus" by Martin Oneill, offers a poignant glimpse into the everyday lives of working-class individuals in Northern England during the 1980s. The image is a powerful reminder of the simple joys and challenges of social life, and the shared experiences of waiting for public transportation after a night out. This photograph is not only a testament to the rich history of Manchester's Piccadilly Bus Station but also a poignant snapshot of a bygone era.
