Photography – People Queuing

Hi everyone, it’s Robbie Cheadle here with you today with my January post in the People Photography section on LatinosUSA – English Edition. This month I am featuring photographs of people queuing.

Sally Lunn’s Historic Eating House and Tea Room in Bath by Robbie Cheadle

Sally Lunn’s is a Historic Eating House and Tea Room set in the oldest house in Bath. It is famous for serving the Sally Lunn Bun, a confectionary originally brought to Bath in 1680 by the Huguenot refugee Solange Luyon (later angilicised to Sally Lunn).

Queuing for Ice cream in Spain by Darlene Foster

These delightful photographs were contributed by children’s author, Darlene Foster. You can find out more about Darlene and her exciting Amanda books on her blog here: https://darlenefoster.wordpress.com/

Some of Darlene’s books are on sale until 1 January 2026. You can learn more about it here: https://darlenefoster.wordpress.com/2025/12/08/end-of-year-book-sale/

In Spain, everyone is excited when the ice cream truck shows up. I know Dot is not a person, but she thinks she is, and waits patiently for her turn.

      HI Thomas, the queue for Sally Lunn’s was long as it went inside and down stairs. We didn’t wait but returned later. They were sold out.

      Hi Darlene, the pictures of Dot are adorable. Thanks for submitting them. I actually made a large Sally Lunn bun from an old English recipe I found. I’ll share about it soon 💛

      People offered to let her go ahead but we said she had to wait like everyone else. She was so patient.

    Robbie, what a thoughtful theme!!! Queuing is such a quietly human subject. And Sally Lunn’s is a wonderful reminder of how place and history linger. I love how you invite others into the frame. I love traveling with you.

      Hi Tandy, I suppose people react to weather differently.
